You must meet the following software prerequisites before installing inter-server communications security. Meeting these prerequisites might include installing or configuring software.
| Prerequisites | Explanation |
|---|---|
ZENworks Server Management |
Policy and Distribution Services must be installed and running. For information on installing Policy and Distribution Services, see Installation on NetWare and Windows. |
Tomcat |
Tomcat 4 must be installed, with or without Apache. This provides the servlet gateway. |
ZENworks Web Server |
Should be installed, configured correctly, and running. For information on installing the ZENworks Web Server, see Web-Based Management for Policy and Distribution Services. |
Novell iManager |
Must be installed and running somewhere in the network. For information on installing iManager, see Management-Specific Workstation Requirements for iManager installation instructions, and Web-Based Management for Policy and Distribution Services for installing the ZENworks plug-ins to iManager. |
Certificate Authority Installed |
When installing the ZENworks plug-ins to iManager, you must select the Install the ZENworks Certificate Authority option so that this signing authority will be available to sign the security certificates during installation of the additional Inter-Server Communications Security. For information on installing the ZENworks plug-ins to iManager, see Web-Based Management for Policy and Distribution Services. |
To sign a CSR, the requesting client must authenticate with a username and password. Because these are normally sent over the network in clear text, SSL should be used to keep this information secure.
