Re: Using the SSL module.

I have used the https.pike in pike 8 which is a example of a client/server
connection. Some of the websites its working, but for some it says bad
certificate chain. Does that mean, the websites certificate chain needs to
be fixed? or is there any other way one can do it?

Thanks.
