Having followed the directions in rsa(8),
I'm still not able to make secure connections.

The following is in the logfile for httpd:

  can't open /net/tcp/25/data: tls: local
    factotum_rsa_open: no key matches
    proto=sshrsa role=client

% lookman sshrsa
man 4 factotum # factotum(4)
% man 4 factotum | grep sshrsa
%

tips?

Shouldn't that be, ``proto=rsa'' ?

Yeah, it probably *should* be, but it's not.
Therein lies my confusion.

Okay, I'll be definative.  It should be, ``proto=rsa service=tls'';
that's what I'm using on my web server.  The documentation is probably
out of date.  There was a note to 9fans from Russ about it, but it was
a while back.  Make that change, and you'll be good to go.  Make sure
you have, ``owner=none'' in there, too, but I think you mentioned
that earlier and are already good to go with it.

Notice that if you haven't pulled in a while, you might have
an old ip/httpd/httpd binary, which will still be looking for
proto=sshrsa keys.

Also you need to recompile your kernel in order to link in
a new factotum that knows about proto=rsa.

I recently have had cause to regenerate our certificate
to indicate our more recent domain name.  I've followed
the instructions in rsa(8) for key/cert generation.

Restarting httpd with the new cert causes https auths to fail
with ``no key matches.''  Given my penchant for boobism, I've
very carefully made certain the right key was in factotum and
even pulled the httpd binary from sources, just in case.

If I switch back to the old key/cert pair, authentication
works as expected.

Can anyone else see this or am I having local issues?

Thanks,

Sam

Add an 'owner=*' field to the key that you dump into factotum.  See if your
old key has that.
