Hi all

I've recently intalled Apache 1.3.6 with mod_ssl 2.2.8.  I'm not
interested in getting a CA certificate from one of the established CA's
(well, not unless it's free), so I'm using the recommended tagcert
application that comes with mod_ssl to enable 128 bit encryption.  In
any case, since I'm not a bank or anything, the established CA's
wouldn't grant me with Global Server ID even if I paid.  

Problem is that this only patches the certificate when it is already in
the client browser's certificate database.  So, for clients to use 128
bit encryption, they either have to use the Fortify patch or the tagcert
application.  Neither of these solutions is very "clean".  Is it
possible to tag the Global Server ID field of the CA certificate BEFORE
the certificate is imported into a particular browser's certificate
database?  This would make life so much simpler.

Thanks for any explanations.
