Hi,

Ah. So. I guess the thing to remember is something like this: Us mere mortals wouldn't normally need to worry about matching these things together properly. We would expect things to "just work" by the code doing whatever "magic" is required. ;) For us geeks trying to iron-out this present anomaly, I still cannot find what the "proper name" should be for the gn and gmane certs/pems. However, I suppose discovering the aw name was more of an "accident" it seems to work that way. ;) I then suppose the OpenSSL APIs will have something to offer for the app to keep-track of these certs? (Other software, that support SSL, seem to handle all this tracking automatically. The app only needs to know whether to use SSL-mode or not.) Thanks again. _______________________________________________ Pan-devel mailing list Pan-devel@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pan-devel
