> For applications that take advantage of the certificate store generation feature, there may be a need for the client's to obtain truststores and, optionally, keystores to successfully communicate via SSL to the server-side application components.
> One possible approach is a CLI option:
> slider ssl-support --keystore <path for generated file> --subj <DN for client>
> Some key points:
> 1)  Could use the localhost from where the client is invoked to create the subject DN (CN=<localhost name>) if no subject is specified
> 2)  For clients to access these stores they will need access to store passwords.  I believe it's be most appropriate to leverage the Credential Provider facility.
