Description Michael Gorovoy CLA 2011-03-10 11:00:42 EST
Currently, when Jetty tries to validate an SSL certificate, it always attempts to turn on support for Certificate Revocation List Distribution Points (CRLDP) as well as On-Line Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) X509 certificate extensions.

This enhancement allows more fine-grained control over what methods of certificate revocation checking are going to be used by both Jetty server in SSL connectors as well as Jetty client.
Comment 1 Michael Gorovoy CLA 2011-03-10 11:02:10 EST
It is important to note that if no Certificate Revocation checking method is configured, or if neither CRLDP or OCSP extension information is present in the certificate being validated, and CRL file location has not been provided, the certificate validation will fail unconditionally.
