Re: howto get IE Netscape to accept CA?
I am trying to find the best way to let IE/Netscape to accept our CA, But even the certificate can be embed to next version IE/Netscape, all end-user that use our certificate must upgrade their broswer too! It's too hard. Maybe the best way is only to use default CA's certificate like Verisign, Thwate, CyberTrust, KeyWitness. any good idea? __ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List[EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: howto get IE Netscape to accept CA?
Use the mime: application/x-x509-ca-cert Hazel Does anyone have the URL for how Netsape and/or MSIE validate or test then accept a CA for inclusion in their web browsers? I tried a lot of combinations on some search engines and hit a blank I am thinking about trying the phone and calling Redmond Washington and California to ask, but expect that will be difficult and at least an hour or more on the phone as well. I saw some emails on the list that mentioned that maybe the CA would pay a big fee and then have to pass an evaluation. I know that the RSA patent is expiring sept21 in the US and I expect that a lot more CA's will pop up like the www.equifax.com With OpenSSL and some scripts like at www.openca.org and then proving your company is reputable and then somehow paying or begging the web browsers to include them as a CA then a lot of CAs could be popping up by the end of the year.
