Hello,
I meet this problem before. It's seems this is a strange behavior from Netscape. The work around is to force the browser to present the Client Certificate. In netscape you can set up this option in Security --> Navigator --> Certificate to identify you to a web site: choose <name cert>

Hi,
I have managed to get client authentification working on a directory
basis. That is, apache ask for client certificate when I try to
access a file in that directory, I am telling netscape to send
my cclient cert and I do get the page requested.
Thats fine so far, but when I try to get another page from that directory
orf even the same page again, apache asks me again for a client cerrtificate,
so I am having to send my client cert for evrey page again and again
and again..
can someone please point me into the direction where to look further ?
I would really like to get this running..
any helpappreciated,
Goetz.
