OK, one other thing that just struck me regarding SSL issues, at least in the HTTP world... Verisign won't issue a server sert (x.509) for just "any" server, it has to be examined and approved (Apache finally got this), I believe Thawte Consulting, while more freewheeling, is also in a similar case. The reality is, you have to have a cert from someone who is pre-registered as a root server, or you're going to confuse your users.... sad but true. Now, SSL for backend connectivity is another question :-) Chris -- | Christopher Petrilli | petrilli@amber.org
