Hi,
I have used X509 certificates in conjunction with SAP web applications a number of times and have had little problem is getting them to work, however I have come across a scenario wherby we now need to use X509 RFC3820 certficates. They differ in that it is signed by the end-entity certificate and not by the certificate authority (CA). Usually the proxy cert is presented along with the end-entity (vanilla) X.509 certificate and the chain is used for authentication as opposed to just the vanilla certificate.
Details of the standard are here http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3820.txt
Does anyone know if these can be used in conjunction with SAP? Or what changes to the standard X509 certificate setup would be needed
Kind regards
Richard

Hi Rich,
just install the proxy (cert's) into the SAP system.
