   17. Configuring Pegasus to use SSL
   ================================
   
   Please follow section 11 and 16 before reading this section.
   
   To configure Pegasus to take advantage of SSL, configure
   CIMserver to have the following configuration options set to:
   
           sslTrustFilePath=client.pem
           sslCertificateFilePath=server.pem
           sslKeyFilePath=file.pem
           httpsPort=5989
           enableHttpsConnection=true
   
   using the 'cimconfig' utility:
   
           cimconfig -p -s enableHttpsConnection=true
   
   (The client.pem and server.pem are the certifications
   files created per the steps in the earlier section).
   
   For good riddance you might consider closing down
   the cleartext 5988 port. Modify your CIMserver to
   (using 'cimconfig') to have the option:
   
           enableHttpConnection=false
   
   18.PAM Authentication
   ===================
   
   In order to use PAM Authentication you have to compile Pegasus
   with one extra enviroment flags:
   
           PEGASUS_PAM_AUTHENTICATION=1
   
   You can also set the PEGASUS_ALWAYS_USE_PAM=1 flag to disable
   Pegasus password authentication using a flag text-file (recommended).
   
   After compiling (refer to section 17 for details), follow these two
   important steps:
   
    a).  Copy the rpm/wbem file in-to /etc/pam.d directory.
         This notifies PAM what kind of libraries to use when authenticating
         Pegasus.
    b).  Modify CIMserver configuration options:
   
           usePAMAuthentication=true
           enableAuthentication=true
   
         And if you want to allow 'root' (*not recommended*)
           enableRemotePrivilegedUserAccess=true
   
         using the 'cimconfig' operation, such as:
   
           cimconfig -p -s usePAMAuthentication=true
   
   The user is authenticated using HTTP Basic method, thererfore it is
   strongly suggested you use SSL connection instead of normal HTTP connection.
   Refer to section 16 for more details on creating and using SSL keys.
