Question re: client certificates

In reading  http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/api/Content/sforce_api_om_outboundmessaging_setting_up.htm, in particular the section on Downloading the Salesforce.com Client Certificate, I was wondering if the certificate that is generated by that link is unique to each organization?

 

Or to put another way, if I'm developing an application that is to be installed by customers, how would I store a certificate that can be used to securely connect to our external server(s)?

 

Thanks,

Eddy

Outbound messaging will present the Salesforce.com client cert, if prompted to by your server.    The cert is available in Setup -> Develop - > API 

 

When using Apex Callouts, you can actually use a per-org cert that can be created with the new "Certificates and Key Management" feature

Hi jambu345 - you probably want to try a different list.   This discussion is related to SSL certificates and not Salesforce certification.
