Connecting via SSL: trusted issuer/root cert - 02/01/09 11:13 AM
Hi all,
I'm trying to connect via SSL against a psybnc. This works fine, but until now psybnc used a self-signed certificate and I had to tell mIRC that this is a trustworthy cert. Now I have my own little CA and I gave psybnc a server certificate from my CA. The root certificate is stored in my windows certificate store under "Trusted root certificates". Nevertheless mIRC asks me to validate this server certificate. When I connect via Firefox to my psybnc's port, Firefox tells me that it can completely validate this server certificate.
So my question: Does anyone know where to store trusted root/issuer certificates so that mIRC (libssl/ssleay) accepts the server certs?
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Sir Twist
