The following options have been added to the lynx configuration file to specify the location of certificates.
LOCAL_CERT_PATH directory where personal certificate
information is stored. This includes private keys and certificates
and CA certs that are manually added. Defaults to
``Lynx_Dir()/certs''. Lynx_Dir() is from an initial
patch by Andrew Kuchling (amk@magnet.com) to support the
~/.lynx directory. The behavior here is not yet well
specified.
SHARED_CERT_PATH contains a colon separated list of
directories specifiying where to look for standard CA
Certificates. For example, the VeriSign or MIT CA certificates.
This can be configured at run-time with -capath.
If not set (in
userdefs.h, in any config file, or on the command line), we
will use SSLeay defaults. This directory is always consulted
for certificates, after the local certificate directory is checked.
