  1. Copy the queen’s public key, /home/beehive/certs/sampleco.pem to all clients. For this example, we will assume the client will store the public key as /home/jbloggs/certs/sampleco.pem.
  2. Use the following command line arguments when executing ACT:
    • --enable-ssl
    • --ssl-trusted-ca-file /home/jbloggs/certs/sampleco.pem

    Or use a configuration file similar to the following:

    # ACT configuration file example
    # Contains settings for connecting securely to a specific host and database
    
    host: 10.10.10.10
    dbname: sampledb
    username: sampleuser
    
    # SSL settings
    enable-ssl: true
    ssl-trusted-ca-file: /home/jbloggs/certs/client.pem
