New LegRoom Certificates

This post is only relevent to users of the SSL (https) site and LegRoom.net e-mail users.

As part of the server rebuild process that I mentioned in my last post, I've created new certificates for my web server and mail server. Accessing these services will likely cause various security warnings to be displayed in your browser or mail client. This is expected. To resolve this issue, please perform the following steps.

The new LegRoom CA certificate can be found here: http://www.legroom.net/legroom_ca.crt

Firefox

  1. Click on the CA certificate link above
  2. When prompted, check the "web sites" and "email users" options, then click OK

Internet Explorer

  1. Click on the CA certificate link above
  2. Click Open
  3. Click Install Certificate
  4. Click Next, Next, Finish
  5. Click Yes
  6. Click OK
  7. Click OK

Thunderbird
If you use Thunderbird to check your LegRoom.net e-mail, you will be shown a "Website Certified by an Unknown Authority" message when you next attempt to login. Select "Accept this certificate permanently" and click OK.
