[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBREM-581) can not do connection validation with ssl transport (only impacts detection)
[ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBREM-581?page=comments#action_12341277 ]
Tom Elrod commented on JBREM-581:
----------------------------------
"Suppose I have an app for Kramerica Industries running in the kramerica domain
(sparky, lucy, and pippin, say), and a client on pippin is looking for servers on sparky
and lucy. If the servers use SSL transports, then the client would need a truststore to
connect to the servers, so why couldn't the detector on pippin be supplied with the
same truststore? In other words, if you have a sort of "closed" system where
you know the components, wouldn't this work? I can imagine a more open SOA sort of
public system where a client is looking for any suitable server to connect to, where you
don't know all the components, but in that case I imagine the certificates would be
signed by some public authority."

Key: JBREM-581
URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBREM-581
Project: JBoss Remoting
Issue Type: Bug
Security Level: Public(Everyone can see)
Components: detection
Affects Versions: 2.0.0.CR1 (Boon)
Reporter: Tom Elrod
Assigned To: Tom Elrod
Fix For: 2.2.0.Beta1 (Bluto)
When a detector gets the detection message from a server, the detection message does not
include (nor should it), the ssl info needed to make the ping invocation on that server to
verify it is indeed dead. Per JBREM-580, will currently just avoid making ping invocation
if transport supports ssl. This means that never does the ping invocation to ensure that
the server is really down (and not just lack of getting detection message update), but
instead will just consider it dead if detection message is stale.
