Secure Connection Failed
publictest10.fedoraproject.org uses an invalid security certificate.
The certificate is not trusted because it is self signed.
(Error code: sec_error_untrusted_issuer)
* This could be a problem with the server's configuration, or it could be
someone trying to impersonate the server.
* If you have connected to this server successfully in the past, the error
may be temporary, and you can try again later.
This is what i get....
its a self signed cert. You'll have to configure our browser to accept
it.
