Please don't waste your time reading this unless you have RSA X.509 experience. I need to find an X.509 guru to help me understand how to: * Remove a password from a signed certificate. I know the pw. There must be some set of options to the openssl command that will do this, but I can't find them. * Make a web page that will download a CA cert into IE. * Find a CA that is known to IE that will issue me a cert without my having to pay a fortune every year. The cheapest commercial 128-bit certs I've found are $700 from Thawte. Right now I have a self-signed cert on https://server2.waverley.reid.org/ and most versions of IE are pretty unhappy with it. I am offended by the politics behind this IE behavior, but I can't afford to let that emotion interfere with my quest for a solution. - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
