Hi,

I'm imported personal certificates into firefox, from different physical person as I have to manage things for different people They are named imported cert 1, 2 XX, XX ..... Some pages just refer to the name of the certificate It's hard to say which one is the imported certificate 15 There is a way to the the details of the certificates, but I haven't found any to rename it for becoming clearly understandable. Is there a way to do it ?

Thanks for your help

Hi,

Thanks for your kind answer I know how to import a cert of nearly any sort. But, I repeat, certificate is imported as "imported certificate n°15" and that is what is displayed when being asked to choose a cert from some webpages. It does not help for knowing whose certificate it is (mine ? my brother's one ?) I need to rename it, thing that seems impossible when viewing the certificate details in Firefox but can be done in other browsers

Thanks for your help

PS : I've searched on google before asking

If google couldn't find a answer then that might be a good indicator what can and can't be done.
