[Pki-users] DogTAG PKI - crlDistributionPoints cert profile: Type_0 : URIName error

[sean.veale at gdc4s.com]

Hi 

I'm using RH Enterprise Linux 5.3

Java -version gives 

Java Version "1.6.0.0"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.6) (rhel-1.11.b16.el5-x86_64)
OpenJDK 64 Bit Server VM (build 14.0-b16, mixed mode)

Looks like I'm running a slightly older version of the OpenJDK vm,  and
I'm on a 64 bit platform instead of the 32 bit one you are on.

A red-hat rep would have to weigh in if either would be significant in
this case.
