I don't think it is a FAQ. It doesn't seem to be frequent, or am I missing some mails? If it's a FAQ, then it really belongs to a general PKI FAQ, if such a beast exists. But since people ask here for mod_ssl questions, I don't think they'll search for a general PKI FAQ to get an answer to what they consider to be an OpenSSL bug. So my opinion would be to put this into the OpenSSL FAQ. -- Erwann ABALEA <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - RSA PGP Key ID: 0x2D0EABD5 ----- Je ne suis pas capable d'entrer dans mon logiciel Outlook,car a chaque fois que j'essais je suis obligé d'y aller de manière autonome. -+- AL in : Guide du Neuneu Usenetien - Frappez avant d'entrer -+- ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
