Chapter 12. UNIX Support Guide206Alternatively, you can also access the man pages from the command line, with the followingcommand:# man -M /opt/redhat/rhn/solaris/man Finally, add the Red Hat Libraries to your PATH as you did with libgcc, openssl and zlib.crle -c /var/ld/ld.config -l :/opt/redhat/rhn/solaris/lib12.3.2. Deploying Client SSL CertificatesTo ensure secure data transfer, Red Hat strongly recommends the use of SSL. The RHN Satelliteeases implementation of SSL by generating the necessary certificates during its installation. Theserver-side certificate is automatically installed on the Satellite itself, while the client certificate isplaced in the /pub/ directory of the Satellite's Web server.To install the certificate, follow these steps for each client:1. Download the SSL certificate from the /var/www/html/pub/ directory of the RHNSatellite onto the client system. The certificate will be named something similar to RHN-ORG-TRUSTED-SSL-CERT. It is accessible via the web at the following URL: https://your-satellite.example.com/pub/RHN-ORG-TRUSTED-SSL-CERT.2. Move the client SSL certificate to the RHN-specific directory for your UNIX variant. For Solaris, thiscan be accomplished with a command similar to:mv /path/to/RHN-ORG-TRUSTED-SSL-CERT /opt/redhat/rhn/solaris/usr/share/rhn/When finished, the new client certificate will be installed in the appropriate directory for your UNIXsystem. If you have a large number of systems to prepare for RHN management, you may script thisentire process.Now you must reconfigure the RHN client applications to refer to the newly installed SSL certificate.Refer to Section 12.3.3, “Configuring the clients” for instructions.12.3.3. Configuring the clientsThe final step before registering your client systems with Red Hat Network is to reconfigure their RHNapplications to use the new SSL certificate and obtain updates from the RHN Satellite. Both of thesechanges can be made by editing the configuration file of the Red Hat Update Agent, which providesregistration and update functionality.Follow these steps on each client system:1. As root, change to the RHN configuration directory for the system. For Solaris, the full path is /opt/redhat/rhn/solaris/etc/sysconfig/rhn/.2. Open the up2date configuration file in a text editor.3. Find the serverURL entry and set its value to the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of yourRHN Satellite:
