RTC 2 client - invalid certificates ony on temp basis?
Hello there,
within our intranet, certificates are never valid (it would make me really really suspicious if I find an internal site with an valid certificate). With the old Jazz client, I could (like with firefox ...) tell the application that it should ignore the bad certificate once and forever. The new client only offers to "not work" or "accept once" for the bad certificate. Where is the "ignore forever" option? |

Yeah, this is really annoying. I know tones of intranet servers are using unregistered certificates. Why is RTC forcing me to hit OK on this dialog every single day when I start RTC? How do I get rid of it?

This can be fixed. It is just necessary to create a certificate for the server and, dependant on where you live make sure the key length is really supported.
There are some discussions around it this article will help: http://jazz.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1667&highlight=certificate which refers to the help http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/rtc/v2r0m0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.team.install.doc/topics/t_install_server_certificates.html and clarifies some issues with Linux.

Seems like a pain. So I need to contact the team which maintains our RTC server and have them follow the instructions for self-sign certificates. The world would be better if there was just an option on the dialog to say "yes, I know the risk. Don't show me this crap for this server anymore". Firefox does that, is our source code any more precision than my intranet password?
