------------------------------------

             Summary: Connect with --skip-ssl-validation should not require a 
Keystore or Truststore
                 Key: GEODE-3640
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-3640
             Project: Geode
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: gfsh, security
            Reporter: Jared Stewart


We are still requiring a Keystore and Truststore to be specified if a user 
connects via gfsh with --skip-ssl-validation.  We ought to be able to fall back 
to the default JVM truststore in this case since we shouldn't be validating the 
server's certificate, and thus shouldn't need a custom Truststore.  And since 
the gfsh client should not get its identity verified by the server, it should 
not require a custom Keystore.  

This is what happens currently if you omit those options: 

{noformat}
gfsh>connect --use-http --url=https://locator-address/gemfire/v1 
--user=username --password=******** --skip-ssl-validation
I/O error on GET request for "https://locator-address/gemfire/v1/index": 
sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: 
sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find 
valid certification path to requested target; nested exception is 
javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: 
PKIX path building failed:
