Maybe.. but the Netscape I'm testing works perfectly with Amazon, ebay,
B&N, etc etc etc. I've tried with Win2k servers, Solaris, Stronghold, all
work fine.
Anyone have a mod_ssl server I can try against? mod_ssl version number
different and same as mine for comparison would be excellent.
Slackware 7.0
Apache 1.2.13
mod_ssl-2.6.6-1.3.12
openssl-0.9.6
