This port simply contains a list of SSL Certificate Authority root
|
||
|
|
certificates. Such a list performs a similar role for SSL Certificate
|
||
|
|
verfication that the root cache does for DNS servers.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This list originally came from mod_ssl (where it was ca-bundle.crt. They
|
||
|
|
originally got their list from Netscape Communicator/Navigator),
|
||
|
|
but will be maintained separately. The maintainer will apply strict
|
||
|
|
criteria to suggestions for additions to this list (in concert with
|
||
|
|
the FreeBSD security officer). CAs wishing to be added will need
|
||
|
|
to assure the FreeBSD user community that their certification procedures
|
||
|
|
are sufficiently secure to render their certificates trustworthy.
