I configured a good working configuration of Apache-SSL,
I created my own CA.
All is up and working:
I have a web based certificate request,
an automatic signing process of the client certificates
and automatic downloading of certicates.
All works well,
 
Only one thing:
 
When (MS Internet Explorer) clients connect to my secure web server,
they can choose their client certificate. OK.
The authentification of certificates is OK.
The problem is that when a client make a page request (through links or forms)
in their browser a window appears  saying that they are exchange data with the server
signing these data with their private key,
so in their navigation, for each page they view they have to close this information window with a nervous effect.
 
So the question :
There's a way to avoid these annoying popup windows to appears.
 
Note :
I create the certificate request using the Enroll.CreatePKCS10 method of Enroll object of MS Internet Explorer,
and the download of the signed client certificate is made with the IControl.AcceptPKCS7
method.
I used php , vba and a short shell script to do all the stuff.
 
Thanks.
