Security

Starting with Geronimo 2.1.2 the deployer tool can use a secure channel (SSL/TLS) to communicate with the JMX server to perform the given actions. To enable secure communication just add the --secure option. Depending on your configuration you might also need to specify some Java security properties to configure the JVM to use the right keystores and passwords. For example, on a default Geronimo installation you might need to set the following (all in one line):

export JAVA_OPTS="-Djavax.net.ssl.keyStore=<geronimo_home>/var/security/keystores/geronimo-default -Djavax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword=secret \
  -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=<geronimo_home>/var/security/keystores/geronimo-default -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword=secret"

Once that property is set, you can execute the following command (just as an example):

<geronimo_home>/bin/deploy -u system -p manager --secure list-modules
