Does anyone have an idea for a way to acquire a certificate acceptable to Netscape, perhaps one with a "broken key", that could be used for this purpose?
RSA will give out certificates to individuals; Apple includes a coupon for a free one with their MacOS 7.5 (and 7 Pro) release. There's a program for the Mac (RIPEM Mac) that will convert the keys returned into RIPEM usable PEM-format keys. Isn't that what SSL uses? The only question is what CAs are supported by the browser.... I think the Apple keys are under RSA's Unaffiliated User CA... If there's interest, I'll look further into this. Bob
