Overview
Updates Redis Software certificate-based authentication docs (current, 7.22, and 7.8) so
certificate_subject_lineexamples and guidance match what the API expects.The POST /v1/users example string is corrected to RFC 2253 style: no spaces after commas,
OUlabeled as Organizational Unit, and attribute order starting withCN. Minor copy fixes remove stray spaces before colons in the same sections.A new note lists requirements: RFC 2253 format, reverse attribute order from
CN, exact match to the cert subject, and a singleOUvalue. The same note appears wherever cert users are created (REST API and database setup on the main page).Reviewed by Cursor Bugbot for commit 7f770ee. Bugbot is set up for automated code reviews on this repo. Configure here.
