AccuRev 6.1 introduced support for the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol to provide encrypted communication between
AccuRev clients and the
AccuRev Server. In addition to the required procedures summarized in the preceding table, if you are using
AccuRev 6.1 or higher and SSL has been enabled on the
AccuRev Server, you must perform the following procedure or
AccuSync will not be able to connect to the
AccuRev server:
-
From a shell or console on the machine on which
AccuSync is installed, set the environment variable
ACCUREV_HOME= to the root of your
AccuSync installation directory. For example:
ACCUREV_HOME="c:\Program Files\AccuSync\"
-
From the same shell or console as in the previous step, run the command:
accurev enable_ssl -H <server_name:port>
where
<server_name:port> is the server name and port of the
AccuRev Server that you used to configure
AccuSync.
-
When prompted, review and accept the certificate.
Note: You must accept the certificate to be able to use
AccuSync.
For more information on SSL and how it is implemented in
AccuRev, see
