B4J Question SSL on B4J server

[janderkan]

Hi

I am next in line with the people that have used several days to get this working.
I have read the Wikipedia and think I understand the fundamentals.
I have a jRDC2 server and a B4J client running, and want to add SSL.
I run Keytool from the commandline.
I use this HowTo
1. Will I have a working Keystore using only this command ?

keytool -keystore keystore -alias jetty -genkey -keyalg RSA

2. The command only asks for 1 password, should I use the same password for both lines ?

ssl.KeyStorePassword = "123456"
ssl.KeyManagerPassword = "654321"

3. The first and last name should be my IP address, so '127.0.0.1 for development and '98.135.1.45' for my VPS ?
4. Can the rest of inputs be blank ?
5. I copy my keystore to the directory that contains 'RDCserver.jar'
6. The server starts and runs, I can use it with my client "http://127.0.0.1:55033/rdc".
7. I try to change the client to use "https://127.0.0.1:8443/rdc" and I get following: 'javax.net.ssl.SSLPeerUnverifiedException: peer not authenticated'

2. Yes.
3. Yes.
4. Leave them with the default values.

As you are using a self signed certificate, the clients will not accept it by default. You will need to enable the "accept all" option.
For the certificate to be recognized you need to purchase one or use Lets Encrypt.
