Linux上的ASP.NET Core Kestrel从不提示客户端证书

Question

I have an ASP.NET Core 1.1 application set up to use Https and require client certificates:

I'm running the application on Linux.

If I change ClientCertificateMode to "AllowCertificates", then everything works fine, but the browser never prompts for a client cert.

With "RequireCertificate" set, I still don't get prompted by the browser for a certificate, and I get the two exceptions below (both repeated four times) on the server side and no response returned the the browser:

I've spent about four hours trying different things and Googling around, but I can't seem to figure out what the core cause of the issue is, so thought I'd check if anyone over here has an idea.

Answer 1

Not sure if you've found a solution to this, but I recently ran into a similar issue. I found that if you don't have any client certificates that are signed by a CA that the server trusts, you won't be prompted. My solution was to add the root CA to the trust store in Linux and after that the client certificate would be sent/prompted for appropriately.

Answer 2

我最终使用IIS作为反向代理来获取证书信息（并进行验证），然后将其传递给标头到Kestrel。
