Sorry, Neil, I have to disagree with you and support Mike here. There's no need to
be so particular about threads as long as they have a common *Linux*-related
discussion. If we applied your logic, "network cables" message shouldn't even be
here in the first place.

Here's something on topic: Has anyone messed with site certificates before? They
mostly work for me but not quite. In particular, Netscape says:

"The certificate that the site has presented does not contain the correct site
name...:
   Certificate for:
   Signed by:
   Encryption: Highest Grade (RC4 with 128-bit secret key)"

The certificate was created with RedHat tools that come with apache. How do I get
the site name to show up?

(this message may be deemed inappropriate by Neil since it is still titled
"network cables")  :D
