Default Default certificate store

Hi All,

On RedHat 8, is there a default SSL certificate store? I'm writing an
SSL client that will present a client cert if solicited by the server.
Currently, i'm just hardcoding the client to look for the client cert
in an arbitrary hardcoded directory when initializing my SSL contexts.
I'm wondering if there is a standard certificate store to point to.

Thanks,
Grant.

Each app has its own place. There's no central "security device"
concept, like a virtual smartcard, etc., although someone may have come
up with a way to add one. Even if they have, keep it simple to start.
