Ugly, but accurate. Or is it? Do you really think that "serialNumber" is at the top of a naming tree somewhere?

Firefox claims the same order. To bad Verisign hasn't grasped the concept of distinguished names :-(

Had they done it right, incorporationStateId, incorporationLocalityId, streetAddress, localityName, postalCode would all have been in the RDN with organizationName - they are all attributes of that organization (or the address attributes perhaps belong to the OU). Also, I doubt they have an organizationalUnit "Terms of use at ...".

Regards, Martin
