I notice Netscape 4 has support for "cryptographical modules" and comes with PKCS#11 module. Are there any third party modules (PGP?) available?
There are a number of hardware vendors with PKCS#11 modules for smart cards and other hardware devices. These include Litronic, Chrysalis-ITS and DataKey.
Also is it possible to import certificates (PGP?) into the browser so you aren't stuck with Verisign et al.
You can import X.509 certificates and private keys. The data format is an early version of PKCS#12, which is actually more similar to MicroSoft's PFX. I believe the spec is available on our web site. There are also a number of other CAs on the web, including Thawte in South Africa. -- What is appropriate for the master is not appropriate| Tom Weinstein for the novice.
