Viewing the certificates on an ID
You can display the IBM® Lotus® Notes® and Internet certificates associated with an ID and display information about each certificate -- for example, public key, creation date, expiration date, and certifier information.

For example, the Certificates box displays certificates for a Lotus Notes user ID with the name Alan Jones/Sales/East/Acme. The first certificate listed below is the one issued to Alan Jones for international use. The second certificate listed below is the one issued to Alan Jones for North American use and for electronic signing. Following these are the certificates issued to the certifier of the ID and to any ancestors of the certifier. The last certificate listed below is the Internet certificate issued to Alan Jones.
