bmihelac asked:
I have set CRL file in nginx with ssl_crl directive:
ssl_crl /mypath/crl.pem
However, I noticed that adding or removing revoked certificates from crl.pem apply only when I restart or reload nginx server.
What is best practice for this? Reloading nginx configuration when crl.pem changes or something else?
My answer:
Just reload nginx when you make any changes to the file. This will cause it to re-read the files without interrupting any existing connections or needing to restart. For example (RHEL/CentOS):
service nginx reload
