Incidentally, there are some nodes on the pcb-rnd knowledge pool talking to
the security issues of software signing, https, etc, in case anyone is
interested

Thanks for the information. I will make note of it in case I need it. <br>
This thread is a bit old, but since I last posted to it, I had <br>

about my login to LinuxQuestions.org. They were conducting my login in <br>
the clear. They have since corrected that error.<br>
<br>
As for certificates, Slackware does update the &quot;ca-certificates&quot; =

certificates. The last time I was having a certificate problem was when <br=

my CMOS battery ran low without my notice and caused the certificate <br>
time checks to fail. Once I replaced the battery and re-set the clock, <br>
everything ran fine again.<br>
<br>
Thanks again for the info and take care.<br>
