$350 + for a Versign
$125 for a Thawte
$45 for a Equifax

Which do you think your customers want?

If you follow the directions carefully and make routine backups of your conf
files BEFORE you start
editing them you will most likely not void your warranty. If you screw up
the edits just restore from your backups.

These changes are needed because Equifax is actually using Thawte as their
CA. Cobalt did not foresee
that there would be other CA's in the future and the CA directive is needed
in the httpd.conf file to overcome this.

It's a fairly simple fix and is very pro-customer.
