untrusted (self-sign) certificate on android browser
- by Basiclife
Hi all,
Apologies for the brevity of this question but due to an unfortunate series of events, I've managed to brick my PC so am posting from my phone...
We've just set up Windows Small Business Server 2008 at work which has an external web portal accessible via HTTPS. We haven't yet bought?installed any certificates. The portal provides access to email, sharepoint, remote desktop, etc.... (I'm aware some of these are never going to work on the phone)
From firefox / other desktop browsers, this displays an "untrusted cert' warning which I can choose to ignore.
When browsing from my mobile I get a popup notification which says. "A secure connection could not be established" when I OK this (my only option) I see the standard android-generated "unable to load page - has it moved?" Page.
Does anyone know of a way to either accept the certificate temporarily or allow untrusted certificates generally?
I'm aware that the latter option is non-ideal in the mid to long term but at the moment, I need to access the portal and am willing to either toggle settings as/when required or forego using the mobile for banking, etc... to mitigate my risk.
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide and apologies again for brevity
In case it helps I'm on the G1 running android 1.6 using the default browser
