Hi, This question might be slightly silly and out of place but this conversation brought it up to me. I don't remember seeing the answer... Is it possible to send several chains, each rooted by a different CA ? And then let the client determine if he trusts one of those CAs. Cheers, -

Hi and welcome, I haven't thought hardly about what you're trying to do but my first intuition tells me that encryption also has some part to play in authentication that you're missing. My knowledge of SSL is limited but I think it is safe to say that private/public key (assymetric)
