The part of the help file above doesn't reflect the pref pane dialog (for example the first setting now means the opposite).

OK, I was having some trouble with "server" and "Service URL". For example, "Validate a certificate if it specifies a OCSP server" - that makes me wonder what ever happened to the service URL - I get the impression that the cert manager do check for a service URL. That also makes me wonder if the service URL can be different from the URL to the server (and I sort of assume that it isn't). Feedback is welcome...

Oops, noticed one thing...

I just fixed some empty space and added back "(if available)". I think I'm going to ask around a bit re "server" and "Service URL" before I settle this... The last pref option's decription is also a bit lame, I think.

Got some input from kaie (the "Select this setting for online validation of certificates that provides a URL to a OCSP server (Service URL)" part).

<kaie>	stefanh, sure. I guess saying "server" is lazy, because a full URL is required to the OCSP responder
<kaie>	stefanh, what about "Select this setting for online validation of certificates that provide an OCSP responder service URL?"
	(or maybe drop "responder")
	but your text sounds right, too. just trying to simplify further
<kaie>	"... for online validation of certificates that specify the validation service address (OCSP responder service URL)

Final attempt (hopefully). The only difference is that I've changed the text in comment #4, it's now more in line with kaie's last suggestion, but I kept "Service URL" and "provide" (because the pref says "specifies"). Obviously, we have a bit of a conflict here; a pref text that doesn't match reality and a help text that tries to describe the reality. Suggestions are welcome.

Hmm, I start to wonder... if the last attempt was 100% right. The problem is to somehow relate to "server" in the pref text and at the same time be correct.
