Bad certificate error was produced by OpenSSL, and connection failed by Netscape/Mozilla browser, while MSIE opened the secure pages correctly. I have noticed, that some commercial servers based on commercial (e.g. VeriSign) certificated are opened correctly by the browser. So it means, that OpenSSL produces certificates ONLY MSIE compatible. Well, as far as I think so :) If you know, how I can produce an all-browser-compatible certificate using my own CA and OpenSSL, I would be grateful for such an information. SeeYa
