Hi, I found a blog entry about using SSL with HTTP-access2. http://ghouston.blogspot.com/2006/03/using-ssl-with-ruby-http-access2.html I tried this out on my Mac. I dont have IE so I used opera to export the key. It looks like it gave me a binary file. I wrote a bin_to_base64.rb script to transform the file: #! /usr/bin/env ruby require "base64" binfile ''/pt/w/browser_certificates/equifax_secure_certificate_authority.bin'' b64file ''/pt/w/browser_certificates/equifax_secure_certificate_authority.cer'' fhr = File.open binfile, "r" bin_s = "" fhr.each {|l| bin_s << l} fhr.close b64_s = Base64.encode64 bin_s fhw = File.open b64file, "w" fhw.write b64_s fhw.close It gave me this: MIIDIDCCAomgAwIBAgIENd70zzANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQUFADBOMQswCQYDVQQG EwJVUzEQMA4GA1UEChMHRXF1aWZheDEtMCsGA1UECxMkRXF1aWZheCBTZWN1 cmUgQ2VydGlmaWNhdGUgQXV0aG9yaXR5MB4XDTk4MDgyMjE2NDE1MVoXDTE4 MDgyMjE2NDE1MVowTjELMAkGA1UEBhMCVVMxEDAOBgNVBAoTB0VxdWlmYXgx LTArBgNVBAsTJEVxdWlmYXggU2VjdXJlIENlcnRpZmljYXRlIEF1dGhvcml0 eTCBnzANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQEFAAOBjQAwgYkCgYEAwV2xWGcIYu6gmi0fCG2R FGiYCh7+2gRvE4RiIcPRfM6fBeC4AfBONOziipUEZKzxa1NfBbPLZ4C/QgKO /t0BCezhABRP/PvwDN1Dulsr4R+AcJkVV5MW8Q+XarfCaCMczE1ZMKxRHjuv K9buY0V7xdlfUNLjUA86iOe/FP3gx7kCAwEAAaOCAQkwggEFMHAGA1UdHwRp MGcwZaBjoGGkXzBdMQswCQYDVQQGEwJVUzEQMA4GA1UEChMHRXF1aWZheDEt MCsGA1UECxMkRXF1aWZheCBTZWN1cmUgQ2VydGlmaWNhdGUgQXV0aG9yaXR5 MQ0wCwYDVQQDEwRDUkwxMBoGA1UdEAQTMBGBDzIwMTgwODIyMTY0MTUxWjAL BgNVHQ8EBAMCAQYwHwYDVR0jBBgwFoAUSOZo+SvSspXXR9gjIBBPM5iQn9Qw HQYDVR0OBBYEFEjmaPkr0rKV10fYIyAQTzOYkJ/UMAwGA1UdEwQFMAMBAf8w GgYJKoZIhvZ9B0EABA0wCxsFVjMuMGMDAgbAMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBBQUAA4GB AFjOKer89961zgK5F7WF0bnj4JXMJTENAKaSbn+2kmOeUJXRmm/kEd5jhW6Y 7qj/WsjTVbJmcVfewCHrPSqnI0kBBIZCe/zuf6IWUrVnZ9NA2zsmWLIodz2u FHdh1voqZiegDfqnc1zqcPGUIWVEX/r87yloqaKHee9570+sB3c4 I then tried it out.
