[off topic] self-signed cert
Authored by: xSmurf on Dec 19, '05 09:20:24PM

Yup I tried that. I had a lot of problems with certs. The 509 Anchor keychain wouldn't take my Thawte certs! I ended up rebuilding it from the install files.
I tried dragging the cert icon to extract the cert from the dialog. Added to th 509A keychain. It's there alright, but no go :/ I tried exporting from Firefox (as it's what I did for the thawte certs) to no avail.

Extra: While thinking about it I checked here once again and this time found :

There was some info about root certifiate in the comments, so I grabbed mine and added it to 509A... Voilà! it worked :D Sweet thanks for making me look at it one more time, with this and the recent Pick of the week about viewing all mailbox counts in the Dock I'm all set.

Extra Extra: Ho wow I just noticed while trying it once again that if you hold command while dragging the cert to extract it, it makes an ascii file (txt) instead of a binary file (crt) neat for debugging!
