RE: IBM Navigator for i web site - certificate errors

The self-signed certificate IS the problem.

The newer browsers are just getting out of control with the features they
force us to use. So the only real way out is to a) configure the browsers
in your organization to accept the self-signed certificate as a recognized
one, not easy to do I might add, or get a commercial certificate that the
browsers all recognize.

It's that browser interaction that we are trying to avoid.

How many users in your organization need to access Navigator for i? I would
think that it is relatively few "sysadmin" types. These people should
understand the security implications of adding an exception for a self-
signed certificate.
