title: Create certificates with sha-256 as the hash algorithm in oracle 11g using orapki/wallet manager
body: <p>I am creating SSL enabled connection between oracle 11g database (11.2.0.1), and java client using thin client jdbc driver (type 4). We are creating the client/server/root certificates using orapki utility and putting the certificates in oracle wallet.</p>
  
  <p>It seems the default hash algorithm for encryption, when we create certificates using orapki utility (in oracle 11g db) is md5. This was working fine, until we upgraded to jdk1.7 u101. This version of jdk no longer supports MD5. So it seems we need to use SHA-256 as the hash algorithm. I keep getting references that oracle wallet manager 11.2.0.1+ supports SHA-256, but I cannot find any documentation on how to specify SHA-256 as the hash algorithm while creating the certificates. </p>
  
  <p>Is there a way I can generate certificates through orapki/wallet manager with SHA-256 as the hash algorithm?</p>
