Hey Tom, Thanks for the cert and thanks for the reply. I knew of the loose promise of having a cert within 48 hours.
I am working on a documentation project and I am doing video captures for folks who need it. I wanted to request an identity cert, show how to check the status and then import it when ready. I just started to worry that my request didn't get through since it had been over 80 hours... Your extra information helps me in writing my documentation, so thanks! But before I include the ag-tech mailing list for the technically challenged and cert requests start flying in like crazy, what would you recommend I put for my users/readers to do in the event a case like this is repeated? Should I write that they should request another cert? Should I list ag-tech and instruct them to send an email? Again, I know the difference between the anon cert and the others, but consider 48 hours to be a reasonable turn-around time. Thanks in advance for your help. --Vic -----Original Message----- From: owner-ag-t...@mcs.anl.gov [mailto:owner-ag-t...@mcs.anl.gov] On Behalf Of Thomas D.

If you have any trouble with it, let us know (ag-i...@mcs.anl.gov). If the certificate request tool doesn't tell you of a problem, you should be able to safely assume that the request succeeded. Because these certificates are signed manually, we claim a two-day turnaround on them (but usually do better than that). If you need a cert in a hurry, you could optionally request an anonymous cert, which is signed automatically and available immediately.
