What sense does it make to do that manually? You misunderstood. The main problem is that konqueror does not support 3rd party CA-certs without jumping though a *lot* of hoops. This is on the konqueror security guy's todo list, but afaik, has not been addressed yet. Maybe somebody running beta2 can inform us differently. *Because* it doesn't permenetly accept the certificates, each time you hit the website (or mail server for pops), it asks *again* if you want to accept it, even if you select Forever. This is a known bug, and unfortunetly not one with a good work around. - -- D.A.Bishop -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE8f+vWEHLN/FXAbC0RAt3SAJ9bj8nLej2Vmd2Zc1NZQ6eQkUZCcgCfYpaI WMI2J7WFfVH2c2J31fwveoA= =gbjY -END PGP SIGNATURE-
