Hi Lance,

I've managed to get an SSL Server certificate, installed it to my keystore and
tried to sign a document with it. It does not show up in the Add Cert dialog of
OOo. But this was expected.

Gone to CACert.org and get a Client Certificate from them. Installed into the
keystore and tried to sign a document. It worked perfectly.

So this seems to be a problem with either your special certificates and/or the
location of the used keystore.

OOo uses the following way to find the certs used and stops at the first found
location :

1.) The Environment variable MOZILLA_CERTIFICATE_FOLDER
2,) The Thunderbird Profile
3.) The Mozilla Profile
4.) The Firefox Profile

This is because mostly E-Mail Clients use certificates to sign documents. I'm
sorry for no better reply but it seems that I have to close this Issue as
worksforme. Please try a new Client Cert from CACert.org and comment on this
Issue the next days, until than I leave the Issue open.
