Thorsten, I really appreciate your help here. Okay, I got the latter site "https://www.thawte.com/"; to work -- certificate found and accepted. The procedures used were those that Stef wrote up. Basically I unpacked your "ssl.certs.shar" file into the directory my private certs go into, and that was it. They were already "hashed" and ready to go. I use the environment variable SSL_CERT_DIR since that directory is not the standard default. HOWEVER, I could not get "https://mirbsd.bsdadvocacy.org:8890/"; to work. I get the "SSL error:host(mirbsd.bsdadvocacy.org:8890)!=cert(mirbsd. sdadvocacy.org)-Cont[inue? (y)]" message. I tried using both the set of certificates in "ssl.certs.shar", and one constructed from "https://mirbsd. bsdadvocacy.org:8890/ca.cer.asc". Now, is this a problem with my procedures, with the port "8890" that has been brought up before, or maybe something on the server end? I have absolutely no knowledge of what all this means so you'll have to guide me the whole way. (It would be nice to get a couple of working examples for Lynx users.) __Henry ; To UNSUBSCRIBE: Send "unsubscribe lynx-dev" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
