This will be the certificate on the server, not anything that is under 
pidgin's control.  Pidgin is an, open source, messaging client that can 
work with many types of server, including some public services, so there 
is no simple answer to your question.


Also certificates have to be signed by a trusted third party (e.g. 
Verisign, or LetsEncrypt, or even your own corporate one).  Details of 
the procedure will also depend on which is being used.  (If you are 
FurnaceFilterKing, the trusted third party for your public web site is 
DigiCert Inc.  However, your internal server might be using the old 
branding and might have a different certifier.)




We need to add another account for an employee, how do we do that? Please
Reply all when replying back to this email.


Again, this is something that needs to be done on the server, not on 
pidgin.  Once you have created the account, you can then configure the 
new employee's pidgin to access it.


Also note that there is no formal support organisation for Pidgin.  This 
mailing list is answered by users.

Hi Nallamuthu,

Can you send a screenshot of what you mean?  Could be a few different
certificates you might be talking about.

It looks to me as though you have failed to keep your root 
certificates up to date (quite possibly an OS level thing) and gmail 
has started using newer one.  Using View Certificate may give a better

Hi Ethan,



I'm not sure it did. This is a Dell from work. I had it working on my prior 
computer, but it does not seem to work on this one. My company does have a 
firewall, though I'm confused why I could access AIM on my older machine. 
Please let me know what you recommend?



My friend suggested the following, but I can't seem to access that link and I 
don't know the destination path on my computer. Please advise:





People experiencing the AIM certificate problem can save this file to Pidgin's

SSL Certificate Verification issues

[Don Keeney]

Recently I started getting SSL Certificate Verification issues on AIM, with 
Pidgin. The following would come up:
Accept certificate for bos.oscar.aol.com?

The certificate for bos.oscar.aol.com could not be validated.

The certificate has expired and should not be considered valid.  Check that 
your computer's date and time are accurate.


And it has buttons to view the certificate, or Reject or Accept it. No matter 
what happens, whether I click Accept or Reject, the next time I log in it comes 
up again. It's quite annoying and I'm not sure what to do. How am I supposed to 
be able to fix this?

Well it is AOL's job to do that, all that Pidgin is telling you is that
the certificate has expired, it seems to be a new cert and they have
managed to only make it valid for 2 days.

Pidgin MSN Non Functional. SSL Certificate Error ( Recurring too ! )

[pheedme]

I dont have time to search forums for this bug, I know its a known
issue, but in the end if this doesent get addressed, im migrating to
something that works withough me needing to Fuck with MSN SSL
certificates every 20 Minutes Forward this message to someone, or
don't. If this isnt fixed in less than a week, I will have no choice to
migrate to Empathy or another Multi-Chat client

So Technically if all I have to do is the steps below, can this be
scrippted into the software, to acquire new certificates whenever
required, or at least to verify it on connect?

Updated to the Latest Version
Tried Manually Getting New Certificate --- Fixes Issue
( Executed steps listed here )

Looked like an SSL error, which I confirmed with Goggles. I mean
Googles. I mean Google.

Anyway, to fix it, do this:
1. Open Pidgin. Go to Tools / Certificates and you should see
omega.contacts.msn.com. Delete it.
2. Then go to https://omega.contacts.msn.com . You’ll get an error on
the page, but don’t worry. Just double click on the certificate icon and
export the file to your Desktop or wherever.
3. Then go back into Pidgin and go to Tools / Certificates and Add it
via the Certificate Manager.

It should work now. Yay.



Randomly, or on next connect attempt certificate

Coming From an end user, I will discontinue use of this software, if it
does not support MSN in a stable fashion I tried to Supply as much
usefull information as possible with this message.

Threats to switch to another IM client carry absolutely zero weight here.  If
you don't like Pidgin, you're free to use other software.  We're not going to
cry or lose sleep over it.  We won't even be sorry or insulted.

The popular solution presented by a Google search is incorrect and a security

It's not a bug, unless you believe that clairvoyance is an essential 
requirement for software developers.  It was an unannounced change in 
the interface specification by Microsoft, an interface specification 
which I believe is not fully in the public domain, and which Microsoft 
would prefer not to be available to open source developers.


Also, saying that you are not prepared to search for answers before 
asking is not a way to win friends amongst people who provide answers to 
such questions.  Commercial organisations will accept such enquiries 
because you have paid to be able to make them.  Most people providing 
free support in their own time, just see it as an abuse of their time.

Pidgin SSL-certificate error

[Carlijn Gerrits]

Hello,

I have read the FAQ on the pidgin side, but I don't understand the
instructions at all.

My version of pidgin is giving an error that says exactly this: The
certificate for omega.contacts.msn.com could not be validated. The
certificate chain presented is invalid.
I have not the faintest Idea what I should do about this. I tried restarting
both pidgin and the computer, but neither of these things worked.
I'm not about to mess with anything I don't know about, so I didn't try
anything else.

Is there anyone who can explain to me how I can solve this?

Thanks in advance,

Komiyan

Microsoft have messed up a security feature of the site.  If you don't 
understand what you are doing, you should get someone you personally 
trust, and who is competent, to make the changes.  The mechanism in 
question is about giving you a high level of certainty that you are 
dealing with the actual MSN server.  You do not have that level of 
certainty that the information that you receive on this list or from the 
bug tracker is actually coming, unaltered, from those.


You need to make an informed risk assessment before following any 
instructions.


I have not the faintest Idea what I should do about this. I tried 
restarting both pidgin and the computer, but neither of these things

Restarting the computer is a sledge hammer approach, and generally will 
not work if the problem is a real problem introduced by a change made at 
either end, and in particular, in this case, one made at the remote end.


The official client was probably updated, securely, in advance of this 
change, and, as Microsoft don't approve of the use of third party, open 
source, clients, they probably don't care that they have broken access 
from Pidgin.

 during the Pidgin start. Why ?

I had running Pidgin with a MSN account the entire day.
When I saw these mails I disabled the MSN account and after a few seconds
I enabled it. It connected without errors.

The I closed Pidgin and started it again. Now it gave me the same error dialog.

Using v2.7.5 on Windows XP.

ssl certificate

[Derek Arndt]

Every time I try to connect to my hotmail messaging account I receive the
following message:

Unable to validate certificate

The certificate for omega.contacts.msn.com could not be validated. The
certificate chain presented is invalid.

A few google searches did not help solve the issue. This is making pidgin
unusable. Any help would be appreciated. I'm not sure the source of the
issue, as far as I can tell it started randomly.

 Hi!

 Today I got this dialog after starting pidgin:

 SSL Certificate Verification

 Accept certificate for rsi.hotmail.com?

 The root certificate this one claims to be issued by is unknown to Pidgin.

 I never saw this until now. What does it mean ? Why did it appear ?
   
I believe, and I could be wrong, that MSN updated their certificate
(24th November) and Pidgin does not yet include the new certificate by
default.

I would expect/hope the developers will add it in the next release.

SSL Certificate Verification dialog ?

[David Balazic]

Hi!

Today I got this dialog after starting pidgin:

SSL Certificate Verification

Accept certificate for rsi.hotmail.com?

The root certificate this one claims to be issued by is unknown to Pidgin.

I never saw this until now. What does it mean ? Why did it appear ?

I use 2.5.2 on WinXP SP3.
I have a MSN account and one IRC account.

David
