RabbieBurns Posted September 11, 2008 Posted September 11, 2008 The one you and srochford posted. SSL Certificate Wildcard SSL Free Certificates Server Certificates 256 bits
Geoff Posted September 11, 2008 Posted September 11, 2008 You probably didn't install the ca chain certificate.
RabbieBurns Posted September 12, 2008 Posted September 12, 2008 Thats what it looks like, but I followed all the instructions on their site (which incidently is now being reported by firefox as an attack site?? SSL Certificate Authority low-cost, fully-validated 38$ SSL and 276$ Wildcard Certificates ) Ive obviously screwed something up somewhere... Ive tried re-installing the Intermediate Cert to no avail.
Geoff Posted September 12, 2008 Posted September 12, 2008 Well I can comfirm it does work fine. I have firefox2/3 + apache + IPSCA cert working just fine.
RabbieBurns Posted September 12, 2008 Posted September 12, 2008 Cool. Ive emailled their support. As I say, Ive probably done something wrong
GrumbleDook Posted September 12, 2008 Posted September 12, 2008 Yes, there is a process for doing this that just needs some tidying up between EMBC and ourselves (and a subequent procedure put in place for Synetrix). I won't have it ready for next friday's meeting with the Northants IT Managers, but if peopl can prod me every so often to keep chasing it and getting it published (yes ... that means you lot ... Kim / Barry / Kev / Ken)
cookie_monster Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 Looking back i'm unclear if anyone got a free single server .sch.uk certificate from here? SSL Certificate Wildcard SSL Free Certificates Server Certificates 256 bits Cheers.
GrumbleDook Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 Please see my post in the Security Forum here. 1
tonyd Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 Looking back i'm unclear if anyone got a free single server .sch.uk certificate from here? SSL Certificate Wildcard SSL Free Certificates Server Certificates 256 bits Cheers. Yes, they can be obtained for .sch.uk domains, I'm just in the process of renewing one I got 2 years ago. It had been working fine so long I'd forgotten it had been a free!
ZeroHour Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 One thing to note is you must have a cert from a authority that uses a root cert on mobiles to allow OMA/OWA as mobile devices have a limited set of root certs that can be used. We used geotrust quickssl premium to ensure mobiles worked well here as our users use it.
john Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 Has anyone had problems getting hold of this lot with issues at all? I started the process for my certificate and when they came back with the whois details asking who to email to confirm my request, the email records are not correct they are missing the school domain out of it so itsshowing [email protected] rather than [email protected]. I've emailed there support desk as per the sites instructions and got a reply saying submit a ticket, did that and no reply to that either! I need to get my OWA secured before Christmas and this has been dragging on over a week now.

jamesb Posted December 11, 2008 Posted December 11, 2008 Might be worth looking at these people: StartSSL? Certificates & Public Key Infrastructure As far as I'm aware they're not yet trusted, but are undergoing audits by Microsoft and Mozilla to be included by default.
mpe Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 Janet Server Certificate Service This is the response I (eventually) got from them. I understand you were looking for some information on Server Certificates for NEN Schools. At present, Janet(UK) only offers SCS Certificates to 1) our organisations in receipt of a Primary Connection to Janet and 2) to Local or Unitary Authorities connected to the National Education Network in England (either directly or via a Regional Broadband Consortium); or to the Scottish Schools Digital Network in Scotland; or to the Lifelong Learning Network in Wales; or to Classroom 2000 in Northern Ireland. We currently have a trial on-going with CLEO (the RBC for Cumbria and Lancashire) where they are issuing Certificates to NEN schools. We are thus hoping to be able to roll this out Nationally at some point to be able to offer the service through all RBCs. All RBCs will be informed at the relevant time as and when the service goes Live. If you require further information and would like to be notified when the service is available, I suggest you contact your RBC, SWGfL Which dosn't exactly correspond to what other people, specifically GrumbleDook, have been saying on this thread.
GrumbleDook Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 Presently the JANET service is not rolled out to RBCs to be CAs. The trial is still going on as far as I am aware but it is unlikely to come to EMBC until it is a national roll-out. JANET will not deal with schools directly on this unless you have a JANET connection (usually linked to a relationship to a local Uni or an early connection). Contact your RBC and LA to see if they have an alternative in the meantime.
