could someone tell me what would happen to encrypted traffic if you have an expired certificate?? Does the traffic flow in clear text henceforth?? or just that the credebility of traffic from that source cannot be accounted for??
From the first link on a google search for "expired certificate still
encrypt traffic" I get a link to this page: http://wiki.surpasshosting.com/index.php?title=SSL_Know_How Which has the following info: Pop-up Errors SSL will work EVEN IF you get any kind of popup. When viewing your website in the secure connection (https://www.domain.com) and you get a popup saying "Domain does not match" or "Expired" or any number of things, your site is STILL SECURE. SSL certificates are only for the sole purpose of the signing or Vouching. If you don't care about these popups then you could use the self signed certificate (will not give you CA bundle). I'd say that answers your question, hth. Aaron
