All-

Can anyone point me to documentation that covers how to configure NMC so
that both the initial authentication is encrypted, as well as subsequent
traffic between NMC and NetWorker Administrator to the client?  Searches
on Powerlink for SSL and NMC have not returned anything even remotely
relevant.

We're running NetWorker Management Console 3.4.2 (which comes with
NetWorker 7.4.2) on RHEL 5.3.

IIRC the NMC that comes with 7.4.4 now uses apache instead of tcl httpd
for the bundled web server.  I'm very familiar with how to configure
apache for SSL, but that would only protect the initial download of the
Java Web Start app, not handle both authentication encryption and later
traffic encryption once the app starts.

Any tips or pointers to documentation that I've missed will be greatly
appreciated,

Tim
