let me jump into your thread for a short remark. Kyle, thank you very much for your patience with such rookies like myself and maybe Jeff. As you wrote: > The nomenclature of this stuff IS COMPLICATED.

(I might try to write something to include into the "extra > contributed docs" section, though.) Your recent post clarify or fills some gaps in my knowledge about this X.509 stuff and handling such an environment. I have read lots of HOWTO's and documentation and everytime have come to the point, there the doc is too old inaccurate, wrong or even all of them. So there are lots of white-spots and gaps belonging to this theme in my knowledge. Especially your and Stephens help on last sunday (!) was invaluable. I cannot give back help in this context, but be assured that there are other themes I really know my stuff :-) And accomodation like yours is always a good reason to do the same on my grounds. How about letting you last mailing-list entry as an entry-point for a advanced beginners HOWTO? Only raw text, nothing else, no extra work. ciao, Georg ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
