6.6.7 Managing Certificate Change

The self-signed certificates for iFolder services change when they are expired, revoked, or replaced
with a new certificate by a new CA.
Client: When a new certificate is created, the user has to approve of from the client side. The client
prompts for the new certificate for the user to accept it.
Web Admin Server: The change in the certificate is not automatically communicated to the Web
Admin server. You must reconfigure the Web Admin server for the new certificate to be accepted.
By default, the new certificate is accepted in the server side. In the front-end, the browser is updated
automatically when the server is updated with the new certificate.
Web Access Server: The change in the certificate is not automatically communicated to the Web
Admin server. You must reconfigure the Web Access server for the new certificate to be accepted.
By default, the new certificate is accepted in the server side. In the front-end, the browser is updated
automatically when the server is updated with the new certificate.
