Hi All. Help. Netscape is driving me to drinks! Problem : Netscape 7.1 will not "redirect" from http://my.first.dom to https://my.secure.dom, claims it is transmitting in clear text (rather than encrypted).
Objective : from first web-site, create a linik to a secure web-site inside index.html using an anchor e.g. <A HREF="https://my.secure.dom";>ClickMe</A> Set up : Apache2 httpd + mod_ssl + Tomcat + Oracle. Tomcat holds java servlets. Apache server has applets communicating with servlets. What works : Everything works just fine using W98+MSIE5 or W98+Netscape6.2 or Linux+Mozilla. What doesn't work : Using Netscape 7.1, When I key in the URL "my.first.dom", it takes me to the web-site. When I click on the link to "my.secure.dom", which does indeed take me to the secure site, it presents the logon screen and the certificate. I logged on and accepted the certificate. Normally in Netscape 6.2, the tiny lock located in bottom right side of screen should be closed and shows the certificate when I click on it. But in 7.1, the lock is NOT CLOSED and it says that the transmission is in clear text for all to see. However, if I key in the URL : https://my.secure.dom, the little lock closes and shows the certificate. ... [code] (httpd.conf) ...
