Greetings,

I'm trying to set up digital signatures in Openoffice 2.3 and Fedora
Core 8.

I *have* followed the instructions at
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/How_to_use_digital_Signatures
and http://www.linux.com/articles/57554

I've got a client certificate which shows in Firefox but not in
OpenOffice. Even setting the MOZILLA_CERTIFICATE_FOLDER variable
doesn't help. Further googling only reveals two or three other people
who already had the same problem with other versions of Fedora, but no
way to make it work. It must be some distribution-specific problems,
because users of other versions of Linux seem to ignore it (and no,
changing distribution is not an option for me right now).

I've already asked on the Fedora users mailing list, but no definitive
answer has come yet on that front, so I tought I'd ask here too if
somebody got this particular feature working in OOo with Fedora.

On a related note, why is it necessary to get a certificate instead of
integrating OOo with, say, GnuPg digital signatures one may already be
using for email? Is it to provide a cross-platform OOo digital
signature method or something else?

TIA,
Marco
