Hi all, This is not particularly related to debian but I hoped some SSL experts out there could satisfy my curiousity.
Over the weekend I was trying to connect to my online banking (National Australia Bank) and get a certificate error about not recognising the issuer of the certificate for the page. This happened on all browsers (galeon, netscape 4.7, 7) except IE 6. The certificate had been valid since May and I had connected to the site the week before with no problems. I realise I could have accepted the certificate and continued, but I was a little hesitant to do so (being my bank account and all). Anyway, I called the bank's technical support line to see if they knew about the problem and they told me it was related to daylight savings and would be fixed when their technical experts came in on Monday, but he assured me there was no security problem with the site. Now Melbourne did switch to daylight savings time in the early hours of Sunday morning, and they did manage to fix the problem by Monday afternoon, but I'm still curious as to what would cause that problem. Does anybody know if a switch to daylight savings could cause a problem with a site's certificate at all, let alone one with that error? BTW - the working certificate today appears to have the same issuer as the problematic one yesterday. TIA for satisfying my curiousity Bec -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
