Certificate error using secure web server?

[Agonostis]

Hi,

In firefox 2 and IE7 I am getting certificate errors using the secure (https:...) web server. I am able to continue through them to my httpd page, but I'd like to not have them.

Is there some configuartion somewhere I can change for this?

Thanks!

This certificate is generated by the webserver and thus not signed by a thrusted company. Hence you will always end up with this error. Simply accept the certificate once that should do it.

Thanks very much for the prompt reponse Ron. I took a screenshot of the error (about a "domain mismatch", attached).

Accepting it once makes it work for the life of the browser instance, but if i close and reopen the browser, i have to ok through the error again, which is less than ideal.

Any way i can get to the state you talk about (where i can just accept it once and it's forever)?

In the webserver settings did you set the name to the name to the hostname that you use to access that PC? If not change it to the correct name to have the certificate generated in the correct name. (Jeez that sounds convoluted ;-))
