[EAS] Missed IPAWS RWT

[David Turnmire]

It seems clear enough to me that there are risks involved with any type 
of automatic software update.  But I'm wondering whether in the case of 
security certificates, that it might be advisable to design the ENDEC to 
automatically update its certificate as needed.  It is, after all, 
required by nature to be connected to the internet. And a certificate 
update isn't likely to break a box in the way a software update gone 
awry can.  And the automatic certificate update process could presumably 
take some security cautions such as only querying the SAGE website and 
using a secure channel w/certificate to do that update.  That might even 
be more secure than the typical person doing a manual update.

Just looking for ways to minimize this much disruption in the future 
over something as simple as a certificate.

While I'm at it.... can the other vendors that monitor this list comment 
on how THEIR boxes handle certificates?  TFT?  DASDEC? Gorman-Redlich?  etc

Thanks

Dave
