[Subclipse-users] Plaintext: Permanently Accepting Security Certificates

From: Marvin Toll <tollm_at_dteenergy.com>

Eclipse 3.2.1 - Installed yesterday
Subclipse v. 1.1.8 - Installed yesterday

Our recently installed users ... within the last two days - can not
permanently accept a security certificate. Thus, they endure repeated
prompting within the Eclipse IDE (for example "SVN Repository" view).

Since we are operating within a corporate context, our initial theory was
new users have insufficient privileges - specifically "regedit".
Acquisition of this privilege did not resolve the issue.

In the absence of understanding of the machinery, and which layers are
responsible for handling certificates, one might speculate that:

* Previously installed users had Tortoise or perhaps command line
Subversion capabilities enabling certificate acceptance?

* Previously installed users have earlier versions of Subclipse that
ensured a capability not distributed with the current v. 1.1.8 download?

* Previously installed users have additional administrative privileges not
granted to recently installed users?

Question: Any ideas having more merit than the above speculation?

Thanks,
Marvin
