Also: this is not difficult. IBM should make it clear what root certificate they require. Make sure you get it right -- not just "a DigiCert root" -- DigiCert has about ten different roots, so get the specific name. The names are similar -- often differing only by one word or "G3" versus "G2." Certificate Authorities do not charge (in my experience) for root certificates. Just go to DigiCert's (or whoever's) Web site and find their downloadable root certificates, get the right one, install it on your system and mark it trusted. If they have a choice of formats, my preference is "PEM" format -- you can cut and paste it with an editor. (Others have different opinions.) We are talking a few thousand bytes. There is a whole body of IBM-MAIN threads and other Web education on how to install a certificate.
