Hi, John. I sure did. Looks like the email is legit. Lots of talk about it on the ezproxy listserv today, here's the archive: http://ls.suny.edu/read/?forum=ezproxy&sb=1
In short from those who have installed the new cert, there are no problems with IE but Firefox, Safari and Chrome are experiencing certificate warnings.

I am uncertain as to how this new Root CA will become a part of the browsers trusted roots without some type of user action including a software upgrade, but the following library website instructions lead me to believe that this is not going to be smooth. http://bit.ly/53Npel We are just about to go live with EZProxy in January with an ipsCA cert issued a few months ago, and I am not about to do that if I have serious browser support issue. -- <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> John Wynstra Library Information Systems Specialist Rod Library University of Northern Iowa Cedar Falls, IA 50613 [email protected] (319)273-6399 <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>
