I built an experimental IMP site (linux.ateneo.net, non-Ateneans
please do not use this service) which is a secure Webserver
(Apache httpd, mod_ssl, OpenSSL, imap client, mysql client, mod_php,
horde/imp), which allows Ateneo faculty, staff, and students
to read their mail via the web in a secure way.
I have a little problem with its Certificate. I made a self-signed
certificate, and everytime a user connects to this site, the user
is told that the certificate is signed by an unknown authority,
or is self signed, and the user is asked if he wants to accept
the Certificate. Of course Ateneo users have to accept the
certificate before they can access the site. However, this "ask to
accept" procedure can sometimes "turn-off" or "frighten" a would-be
user. Is there a certificate authority that Netscape and IE will
"accept on sight", that a webserver can go to to get their public
keys signed?
