Hi All,

i can’t find in the documentation how to configure secure access on a web service for a linux Web server.

the documentation seems to be only available for windows webserver.

is there a documentation for securing linux webserver ?

regards,

 

 

 

Hi Chris,

These steps apply to both Windows and Linux:

Hi Carl,

i’m talked about this documentation : Configuring Secured Access on a Web Service (commvault.com)

there is no documentation for linux

There is no Linux equivalent to that doc because WebServerCore doesn’t support HTTPS. You can leave its port (5000) blocked from the outside and just secure Tomcat (my original link). Tomcat will connect to WebServerCore locally when needed.


so when you decide to install command center role on a separate server you can’t secure communication between command center server and webserver server on linux. 


As far as I’m aware, yes.


@ChrisCC, I didn’t think of this yesterday, but while you can’t configure HTTPS on WebServerCore, you can use TPPM to tunnel traffic through a secure cvfwd tunnel.

Hello Carl, thank you for this procedure, like we said in french “tu m’enlèves une épine du pied”.

Have a nice day

Christophe
