Re: [Lynx-dev] Problem with SSL certificates in Lynx

[Stef Caunter]

You appear to have lynx built with gnutls, but succeed in testing with openssl. 
Are you able to build with openssl? Documented usage procedures are done with 
openssl. The 2.8.5 release will connect without error unless cert is a wildcard 
cert. You have exported SSL_CERT_DIR and SSL_CERT_FILE appropriately for your 
shell?
