SMC_CLIENT_CERT, possible misunderstanding #65

Open sebbbastien opened 5 years ago

sebbbastien commented 5 years ago

Hi David,

I hesitated a lot before creating this issue, but I think it makes a real misunderstanding.

The SMC_CLIENT_CERT option in the.smcrc file suggests that it is a certificate to be presented to the CMS, a mutual ssl authentication in short.

Wouldn't a SMC_CA or SMC_SERVER_CA type name be better?

If you agree, I would be happy to take the point and try to submit a PR on this subject in the upcoming weeks.

Best regards,

Hi Sebastian, I understand. If you want to put a pull request in that would be great! Or if you file it at the github site, I can implement. I will still support the old method but hide it going forward - I think this makes sense.
