Hi Ricardo,

Dogtag is all about signing and managing certificates.  Our
documentation covers how to submit a CSR to Dogtag, how to sign the
cert and retrieve the certificate.  It is not really in scope for
our documentation to explain how to configure TLS/SSL for a
particular server program.

Cheers,
Fraser
