Introduction

In the past Fysh.Org used several self-signed SSL certificates to facilitate the use of SSL encryption on various services. Because these were self-signed they caused web browsers to issue a warning. From 18th December 2012 a properly signed certificate has been in use on all Fysh.Org services.

Fysh.Org Certificates' Details

*.fysh.org

Fysh.Org uses the following certificate. This will also be used by any web site we server if accessed via HTTPS rather than HTTP. The same certificate is also used for Mail services on mail.fysh.org, News on nntp.fysh.org etc.

Note that your browser may not have the necessary CA certificate installed, see Why does Firefox present a warning when connecting to my website?. Remember if you install that certificate you're expressly trusting StartSSL to only issue valid certificates.
