HP OpenVMS 8.x manual Configuring SSL for OpenVMS Optional

NOTE: Do not attempt to explicitly remove Kerberos from your system. The PRODUCT REMOVE command is not supported for Kerberos although there appears to be an option to remove Kerberos. Kerberos is installed with the operating system and is tightly bound with it. Attempts to remove it might not work as expected and can create undesirable side effects. An attempt to remove it results in a message similar to the following:

%PCSI-E-HRDREF, product HP I64VMS Kerberos V3.1 is referenced by HP I64VMS OPENVMS V8.3-1H1

The two products listed above are tightly bound by a software dependency. If you override the recommendation to terminate the operation, the referenced product will be removed, but the referencing product will have an unsatisfied software dependency and may no longer function correctly. Please review the referencing product’s documentation on requirements.

Answer YES to the following question to terminate the PRODUCT command. However, if you are sure you want to remove the referenced product then answer NO to continue the operation.

Terminating is strongly recommended. Do you want to terminate? [YES]

7.8.4 Configuring SSL for OpenVMS (Optional)

The HP SSL for OpenVMS software is installed automatically with the operating system. However, use of SSL is not required. If you do not plan to use SSL or any products that depend on it, skip to the next section.

The SSL$STARTUP.COM command procedure has been added to VMS$LPBEGIN-050 to enable SSL to start automatically.

Add the following line to SYS$MANAGER:SYSHUTDOWN.COM:

$ @SYS$STARTUP:SSL$SHUTDOWN.COM

If you are upgrading and have an earlier version of SSL installed, copy your

SSL$STARTUP.TEMPLATE file (located in SYS$STARTUP) to SSL$STARTUP.COM in the SYS$STARTUP directory.

Several other post-installation and post-upgrade tasks are required, as described in the SSL release notes, available in SYS$HELP:SSLnnn.RELEASE_NOTES, where nnn is the version of the SSL software, such as 013.

For more information about SSL, see HP Open Source Security for OpenVMS, Volume 2: HP SSL for OpenVMS.
