I've got my HTTPS server up and running fine, but it will give a message when entering the site from a browser: Yellow !: The security certificate was issued by a company you have not chosen to trust. View the ertificate to determine whether you want to trust the certifying authority Green Check: The Security certificate date is valid Yellow !: The name on te security certificate is invalid or does not match the name of the site. I've read where I need to setup a signing CA. I've read through the MODSSL documentation, but I still can't get it. Are there other recomendations or anyone know of any other info that may help? --Todd _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
