I though so as well but I cannot find any optionn in Netscape 4.7 to set
that. In IE there is a "check server certificate revocation" under internet
options but presumably this only checks CRL of known CA's. Anyone know how
to configure browsers to check CRLs of arbitrary CAs or how do CAs maintain
publicly accessible CRLs.
thanks for any help.
