[news.eclipse.tools.pdt] [maybe OT] Can't access secured pages with self

[Ulf Seltmann <seltmann@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Group,

as the topic says i cant access a secured page with a selfsigned 
certificate, e.g. [1]

here[2] is a Howto that describes how to manage this, but unfortunately 
it doesnt work for me. the external browser trusts the site after 
explicitly telling, but exclipse's internal browser refuses still. with 
exact the same message:

>www.linuxforums.org uses an invalid security certificate.
>
>The certificate is not trusted because it is self signed.
>The certificate is only valid for <a id="cert_domain_link"
>title="localhost.localdomain">localhost.localdomain</a>
>
>(Error code: sec_error_untrusted_issuer)"

help would be appreciated

thanks in advance

ulf
