You must not be on any of the groups.io OS/2 message lists. The threads discussing the implementation of hobbesarchive totalled hundreds of messages. You're right. I hadn't even heard of groups.io. I've just done some googling about it, and got as far as getting a list of all groups, but I couldn't find any mention of OS/2. The problem, I guess, is that I stopped reading the OS/2 Usenet newsgroups a few years ago, after the traffic started dying. Back to the earlier topic. I've had to put aside the question of Let's Encrypt for a while. That's because I had to make big changes to WebServe Setup once I realised how to have separate certificates for different domains. That meant I had to make the TLS properties per-domain rather than global. In the process of making that change, something corrupted my resource file. (Possibly a bug in DrDialog, which I use to create and edit resource files.) After a few attempts failed to fix the problem, I had to re-create all the WebServe notebooks and notebook pages from scratch, a tedious job. That's now done. I still have to modify the server code dealing with certificates, so that's delayed my planned release of a new WebServe version. While rewriting the manual, I had a closer look at what I had received from Let's Encrypt. (It's confusing having two files called key.pem, and multiple files all called cert.pem, but I guess there's no way around that. I just have to memorise which directory is which.) That's when I discovered, last night, that the cert.pem is actually a file containing two certificates, one for my domain and one for the Let's Encrypt domain. That makes sense, but was unexpected. For now I've copied them as cert1.pem and cert2.pem, which is good enough for initial testing, but I need to develop a longer-term strategy. Is this form of bundling the two standard practice? That is, do all certificate authorities do it, or just Let's Encrypt? In the former case, I can modify my "load certificate" code to handle a sequence of certificates in the same file. In the latter case, I'm not sure. -- Peter Moylan peter@pmoylan.org http://www.pmoylan.org
