Issue/Introduction

How do you setup an acid with digital certificates to access multiple sites that require different certificates?

Resolution

There are 2 options.

1. Use multiple keyrings. Use one unique keyring for each FTP site.
2. Use one single keyring and put all the certificates for your multiple sites on the one keyring.

The KEYRING (FTP client and server) statement link documents how to specify a keyring with your FTP job. This allows you to specify a unique keyring for each site to be used with the FTP jobs. So depending on the site you are connect to, you can specify a different keyring.

Regarding the second option, you should be able to use one keyring for all your FTP sites you will be connecting to. The entire keyring will be searched for the right certificate to establish the SSL connection.
