Please note that this is a valid certificate from a real CA. The use of an intermediate certificate (although very annoying) is sometimes used, and is normal. Although, the only other company i've used were i needed to use an intermediate cert was through verisign. I think i may have mistakenly thought that jxplorer would use the same source of trusted CA's as the os. Now that i'm looking into some of the settings, I see it actually only has a handful of CA certs. </div><div style="font-family: Courier New,courier,monaco,monospace,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"> <div style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"><hr size="1">From: Rich Megginson <rmeggins@redhat.com> To: General discussion list for the 389 Directory server project. <fedora-directory-users@redhat.com> Sent: Wednesday, July 8, 2009 10:11:26 PM Subject: Re: [389-users] Recover after installing a bad cert.
