The MSUnet Wireless system has a unique problem with certificates, in that the certificate chain can't be validated prior to login. We are currently using self-signed certs, because the certs from AIS don't help, being chained certs. We are attempting to improve the situation, but using Verisign certs is a big $$$ expense. We think we have a line on cheaper certs that are directly signed by a cert listed in IE 7. If that works out, we can clean up the cert issue for the wireless network.
