My SSL cert (self-generated) expired and I had to re-generate it.
Sometime around then, I happened to notice that gnome-vfs started
(partially) working again (I had been using fuse-davfs as a work-
around that was easier than re-compiling gnome-vfs against openssl).
I don't know if this is because something in gnome-vfs spontaneously
started working again or if I had generated bad certificates that
openssl could compensate for but gnutls couldn't...

However, there's a new problem with SSL secured DAV using gnome-vfs.
If I pick the folder from the bookmarks menu, a window opens and I can
perform file operations. A network share icon appears on my desktop,
but if I click it i get the error window "Unable to mount location.
Not a WebDAV enabled share", and a proper mount point is not created
in ~/.gvfs.

# cd .gvfs
# ls -l
ls: cannot access WebDAV on Server: Input/output error
total 0
?????????? ? ? ? ? ? WebDav on Server

I have to unmount the share from the desktop icon, then open up the
folder window again from the bookmarks menu. Odd. However, sorting
this out is somewhat less of a priority for me than it used to be.
Thanks.
