I think it is Firefox that's confusing. I'm glad that the payment networks got it right: You don't have to install any intermediate CA certificates in the POS terminal in in order to perform a payment with an EMV token. I don't know what Firefox 3.5 does, but in MSIE you can authenticate with an EE certificate, the path is built automatically using AIA CA issuers and you don't have to trust the EE certificate either, that is for the RP to cater for. Analogy: I can't verify that my VISA card is correct, it just looks ok. Anders -- dev-tech-crypto mailing list dev-tech-crypto@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-tech-crypto
