Sync all internet keys/certificates in a Domino Cluster

Domino servers are using multiple internet keys/certificates, such as:

  • Domino Keyring (*.kyr, *.sth)

  • Credstore Key

  • SAML Keys

There should be a mechanism to automatically keep all internet keys/certificates in sync within a Domino Cluster.

With increasing importance of Web Technology in Domino, problems and difficulties with Internet Certificates should be kept as low as possible.

Notice, that Domino Keyrings can be extended using "import roots" (e.g. to enable encrypted LDAP lookups by Directory Assistance).

In the case of SAML, keep them in sync across all Domino servers participating in the Internet Site Document, which is SAML enabled. However, this may also be achieved by a Wizard or Agent within the idpcat.nsf database.

    Domino 12+ CertMgr makes TLS Credentials available even cross domain.
    For TLS/SSL certs you should really switch from kyr files to CertMgr.

    credstore works server or cluster scoped. IMHO this needs improvements.

    For example DKIM keys are really hard to manage using credstore. Inside a cluster and it gets more diffcult outside a cluster.

    The Credstore Named Encryption Key (NEK) is added to each server ID and is used to encrypt keys.

    There are even more keys stored in Credstore like the DAOS shared encryption key.
