Huh.  "Odd".  I wonder how https://ca2.mit.edu/fcgi-bin/ca works in IE6 (which
it does claim to support).  In Gecko after you log in you get a page with a
keygen tag.

I don't know how it works, but according to this page:
http://www.ehtml.com/html/reference/keygen.htm
IE6 doesn't support <keygen>. Also, I'm seeing nothing in a page with
a <keygen> in it, so it seems to me it isn't supported.

It's used to client-side generate a key for a personal certificate (so the
server doesn't ever know your private key).  See

Ok, thanks.
