   Hello Alexey,   
      
   On Tuesday December 17 2019 04:21, you wrote to Alan Ianson:   
      
    AI>> I currently use a self signed certificate.   
      
    AF> Self-signed certificate means no security, unless you publish your CA   
    AF> pubkey somewhere and client verifies it.   
      
   Even if one publishes the pub key somewhere. It is still like:   
      
   I, Michiel van der Vlist - self appointed Certified Authority - hereby declare   
   that when Michiel van der Vlist claims to be Michiel van der Vlist, he is   
   telling the truth. For verifications, download my public key from my website:   
   www.vlist.eu/pubkey.   
      
   A self signed certificate is usefull for testing the setup in the lab. For   
   real use in the big bad world it is useless.   
      
      
   Cheers, Michiel
