On list with the [OT] marker would be great. This is interesting stuff (at least to me). >>> hick0088 at tc.umn.edu 01/23/02 09:31PM >>> Here's a question for the web gurus.. What do I need to do to convince Internet Explorer to accept an SSL certificate from a website that has been self-generated and not bought from Verisign, Thawte, etc.? Mozilla/Netscape will prompt you and ask if you still want to connect, but IE just decides to stop and prevents the page from loading (well, I most recently saw it on IE on MacOSX, but I think it happens on Windows boxes as well). Also, for folks at the U -- I've heard that the university has a program for getting discounted site certificates (not that they're all that expensive anyway, but I figure I may as well get it cheap if I can).. I'm afraid I don't even know where to begin looking to purchase a certificate. Anyone who knows, please e-mail me off-list.. Thanks.. -- _ _ _ _ _ ___ _ _ _ ___ _ _ __ I'm a nobody.
