I now try getting my client, which uses 'commons-httpclient-2.0-rc2' to connect. When I do, I get the following exception: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: No trusted certificate found Is there a way to get self-certified certifcates to be automatically trusted. I must admit I am a newbie when it comes to SSL, so any help would be very much appreciated. regards Andre *************************************************************************************************** The information in this email is confidential and may be legally privileged.
