The contents of the file look like this:

allowPasswordLogon

1

verboseMessages

1

crlVerificationOptional

1

The value of the

allowPasswordLogon

key lets users log in using a user name and

password. Set the value to

0

(zero) to prevent this.

The value of the

verboseMessages

key sets whether diagnostic information is on (

1

) or off

(

0

). You probably do not need to change this setting or to use this information.

The value of the

crlVerificationOptional

key sets the Certificate Revocation List (CRL)

verification. The default value (

1

) allows “lax” CRL verification. The value for strict CRL

verification is zero (

0

).

Changing CRL verification

FSCP is set up to allow “lax” CRL verification so it doesn’t prevent users from logging in or
authenticating if the CRL for a certificate cannot be created or updated (for example, because
the computer cannot connect to the CRL server).

To use strict CRL verification, change the value of the

crlVerificationOptional

key in

the configuration.plist file to zero (

0

).
