Automated mechanism to distribute the necessary CA certificate to Notes clients

The administrator wants to utilize the LotusScript NotesHTTPRequest object to interact with a local REST API secured with a self-signed TLS certificate. This solution needs to function seamlessly on both Notes clients and Domino servers.

Currently, the server's cacerts.pem file can be updated to trust the self-signed certificate. However, require a method for Notes clients to trust this certificate as well.

The suggestion is to have an automated mechanism to distribute the necessary CA certificate (e.g., within cacerts.pem) to the Notes client to avoid manual copying of the certificate to each client. The self-signed certificate can be deployed to Notes clients via security settings within Domino policies, eliminating the need for direct file manipulation.
