427891 - Cannot import root certificate for a new certificate authority

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 387398

(Calendar :: Preferences, defect)

Description

[Andrew Daviel]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.13) Gecko/20080311 Firefox/2.0.0.13
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.13pre) Gecko/20080326 Sunbird/0.8

I cannot see how to import a CA root certificate. Firefox offers this automatically given the correct MIME type, and Thunderbird allows one to import a certificate in Preferences/Advanced, but Sunbird seems to have no mechanism to
do this.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Connect to calendar using SSL
2. Sunbird displays "unknown certificate authority"
3.



I can use a copy of libnssckbi.so that I compiled with our certificate authority,
but that will not work on Windows and is somewhat complicated to maintain.
