View 5.1 security certificates

[jsehmi]

I am using HP Linux thin clients for View. Planning to migrate to View 5.1 from View 5.0

I know I need to get certificate from a CA, my question is - How many certificates do I need? Do I need to deploy client certificates on all the thin clients? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

In my experience certificates are only needed for the View components.

mittim12 is correct (as always). There is no need to install client certificates on the View clients.

Go through the View 5.1 documentation for information on the SSL Server certificate(s) needed with View. By purchasing a trusted CA signed SSL server certificate, your users will have the assurance they are communicating with a trusted environment.
