satelliteuser083 Posted February 8, 2007 Report Share Posted February 8, 2007 A site which I need regularly tells me (mva2006/Firefox v.1.0.6) that: The page requires a client certificate The page you are attempting to access requires your browser to have a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) client certificate that the Web server will recognize. HTTP Error 403.7 - Forbidden: SSL client certificate is required This site causes no problems on LE2005/Firefox v.1.0.2 and I don't remember having to provide anything there :unsure: . Can someone explain what this mssage means and how to solve the problem? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tyme Posted February 8, 2007 Report Share Posted February 8, 2007 Do you have ssl packages installed? Unfortunately I can't remember the specific package names, but it's quite possible that you're missing SSL on your system, so you aren't able to make use of it.

satelliteuser083 Posted February 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2007 MCC says that only 'perl-Crypt-SSLeay' is installed, possibly not the correct one. Available are: apachessl (6 off), libmatrixssl (2 off), libopenssl (8 off), openssl (2 off), perl(xxx)ssl (12 off) and a pythonssl. Wouldn't know where to start in selecting something from there. Any further tips? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyme Posted February 8, 2007 Report Share Posted February 8, 2007 libopenssl and openssl may be a good starting point as far as installing software. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zibi1981 Posted February 8, 2007 Report Share Posted February 8, 2007 Well, I'm not an expert, and never had to cope with such a problem, but according to this article, I would try openssl, if I would be You. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
