SSL considerations - self-signed certificate

[yoadsn]

With normal SSL transactions over HTTP it is possible for the user to add exceptions for incorrectly signed certificates to bypass SSL warnings during testing. This is very useful when the domain being used is not mentioned in the certificate (a fairly common issue when developing and testing).

I would like to know if it is possible to do the same sort of thing with WSS and Lightstreamer?

I would like to test my client/server combination in SSL mode, but the certificate will not necessarily be correctly signed. I don't care about that, I just care about encryption.

Is this possible?

Did not get a chance to check that but i am pretty sure you can browse with https to the LS internal web server (https://your.push.dns.com) and accept the invalid cert warning.
Your browser should support the fake cert now when an LS connection is initiated.

A more complicated solution is to add the fake CA to your local trusted CAs, but if that doesnt ring a bell i guess its not for you.

Hope that helps.
