2008/8/22 Kai Engert kaie@redhat.com:
Parts of the Fedora infrastructure do not use certificates issued by a CA already trusted by Firefox, but from Fedora's own certificate authority.
If you decide to trust Fedora to issue certificates that can identify web sites, you could decide to import that CA cert to your set of trusted roots.
You could go to https://admin.fedoraproject.org/fingerprints and install the CA certificate available from the bottom of that page.
(Unfortunately the mime type currently is not application/x-x509-ca-cert so you have to safe that file, and then open it, you might even have to go to certificate manager and open the authorities tab, then import from there.)
You can confirm the origin of the certificate by comparing the fingerprint presented by Firefox with the one listed on the fingerprints page (at least you'll know that the fingerprints page and the CA are controlled by the same people).
Hope that helps, Kai
Has anyone had any luck importing the revocation list into Firefox? When I choose the import button on the revocation list tab, I do not get a file browser like I do with the other options. I just get a box asking me where the revocation list information is stored, with a text field. I put the absolute pathname in, click OK ... and nothing happens. No error messages. No success either.
