Hi,
I guess I have the same question, which is, if you create your own certificate,
why do you have to first accept it on the clients browser, why is it not
accepted to begin with, or is it because the certificate is created by me?
I guess my question would be, could we shut the feature off where the client
browser pops up a box asking for the client to accept the certificate and make
it so that the page is secure automatically without any user intervention?
Thanks..
