Introduction

If you want to be paranoid about our SSL configuration you need to trust our CA, we are moving all our certificates under a general CA, so if you trust the CA you will automatically trust all the certificates signed by that.

(probably we can add some screenshot to this configuration)

DUE TO A VERY SERIOUS BUG, WE UPDATED OUR CA ON May 14th 2008, PLEASE CHECK THE NEW FINGERPRINT

The x509 file is [http://www.dyne.org/ca-freaknetdyne.cer HERE] (click to download) Verify its integrity:

$ sha1sum ca-freaknetdyne.cer
37cbba931993b48711080961c6ec931f9d0645fd  ca-freaknetdyne.cer
$ md5sum ca-freaknetdyne.cer
110dfe3379bba6206e6606bf0cd3f584  ca-freaknetdyne.cer

The SHA1 fingerprint of our CA released on May 14th 2008 is: FB:06:B7:E7:11:AE:BB:2E:E3:F6:78:9D:F2:70:D4:E3:78:40:15:6F
