Yes, that is the case, some of the nodes in our federation are not good at keeping there certificates up to date. So some nodes openid's work but ones that give a security warning on browsers do not.

Yea, changing library's is not my plan for sure. I was hoping for a "allow untrusted certificates" option. I'll live this open so others can leave their opinions.

when using openid I'm getting back the openid is invalid. if I put the openid in a browser I get the openid xml file. If I curl the openid I get a bad certificate error. If I curl -k the open id it works fine. I believe askbot is using libcurl.

Is there a way to -k (turn off certificate checking)?

I'm the server admin so modifying code / files no biggie.
