[AG-TECH] Problem getting a new certificate

[Andrew Leahy]

Hi, yeah... sorry we didn't provide much info did we!

Chris was on a Linux Fedora 7 with AG 3.1 kit (AccessGrid-3.1-2.fc7) which
is a Venue Server and QuickBridge.
I was on a Mac OSX 10.5.8, AG 3.2beta.
Both machines require and use a http proxy for port 80 (web) from on campus.

However, tonight from home requesting an Identity cert with
CertificateManager from my MacBook has worked fine (using transparent
proxy).
So it could be a local issue with proxies at UWS... we get that a bit. We'll
check again in the morning.
When I was able to see the proxy log entry which kinda looked okay, so I was
hoping it was not our problem :)

Cheers, Andrew.
