Um I hate to disagree especially when I was the person asking the question :-) but I've done some more research and also spoken with Thawte. They say it *is* possible. See: http://www.thawte.com/certs/chained/test.html http://www.thawte.com/certs/chained/ Would that be right? Does anyone want to go through their testing procedure to get the OpenCA system certified? I would offer, but I haven't even got it set up myself yet. :-) -- JEREMY MALCOLM <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://malcolm.wattle.id.au Providing online networks of Australian lawyers (http://www.ilaw.com.au) and Linux experts (http://www.linuxconsultants.com.au) for instant help!
