Hi Andrew,

Thanks for this work. We had a check on the counts coming under our name 
(eMudhra). The problem indicated for all certs are "OCSP response has 
invalid content type application/x-x509-ca-cert".

I believe this is an acceptable response and there is no problem. The OCSP 
response are signed via dedicated responder cert (not the CA), and hence it 
contains this cert data. Else the OCSP verification fails.

Appreciate if you/someone can suggest if I'm missing something here. 

Regards,
Vijay
