Hello, during today's call, we realized that RFC 2818 seems underspecified in terms of what's permissible in wildcard certificates; Yngve told us that Opera only accepts the wildcard in the first label of a DNS name that appears in a certificate. I.e., *.bar.com can match foo.bar.com, but foo.*.com wouldn't match foo.bar.com, in Opera. How do Mozilla and Chrome and Konqueror behave? Thanks, -- Thomas Roessler, W3C <tlr@w3.org>
