Known browser issues
• If you are using Internet Explorer 8 or above, for the application to work properly, you might have to
add the Onboard Administrator domain to your trusted sites. The Onboard Administrator web interface
is only supported when running Internet Explorer 8 in compatibility mode. For more information, see
Internet Explorer Help.
• If you are using Mozilla Firefox 3.6 or above, pressing the ESC key disconnects any open
XMLHttpRequest connections, resulting in unexpected client behavior. For more information, see the
Mozilla article (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=614304).
• Browsers on operating systems released prior to 2004 that do not have the latest security related
patches/updates applied may not be able to connect to the Onboard Administrator web interface
because Onboard Administrator 3.70 changed the default certificate hash algorithm from SHA1 to
SHA256. SHA256 support was not generally available until after 2003. Ensure that the following
minimum requirements for each operating system are met to support SHA256:
o Windows XP requires SP3.
o Windows 2003 Server SP2 requires an update to support SHA256. For more information see, the
Microsoft Support website (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/968730).
o RedHat 4 was originally shipped with OpenSSL 0.9.7 which does not support SHA256. Update the
operating system with the appropriate RPM to use openssl-0.9.8 or later.
• OA 3.70 allows the hash signature algorithm to be changed. If a SHA1 certificate is needed in your
network infrastrature, use the Onboard Administrator GENERATE KEY command to change the key size
and hash algorithm.
