Thanks for the reply Richard. Are you able to supply any details on the issue? Is this a known problem that was already being worked on, or is this a brand new issue? If this has been around for a while, do you have a timetable on a fix? I've checked the list and have not seen anything regarding this error message. If there's anything I can do to help please let me know. Thanks. - Kevin On 12/5/05, Richard Megginson <rmeggins at redhat.com> wrote: > > No, it's not a cert issue.
