This netbeans plugin integrates the mantis bugtracker into the netbeans IDE.
After installation a new issue tracker is available inside netbeans.
If your installation uses a regular SSL certificate, which is signed by a certificate authority (CA), that is part of the normal java certificate storage, that is directly supported. Just enter the URL and with a https prefix.
If you use a self-signed certificate, there are two options:
Add your certificate to the java truststore:
keytool -import -file <servercertfile> -alias <servername> -keystore "%JAVA_HOME%\lib\security\cacerts"
Make sure you use a recent version of MantisIntegration (0.5 and newer) and install the "SSL Certificate Exception" module, that is part of nb-ldap-explorer. The module can be found at: http://code.google.com/p/nb-ldap-explorer/downloads/list and is installable stand-alone. Since version 0.6 the "SSL Certificate Exception" module is distributed together with the 7.4 modules inside the zip downloadable from the netbeans plugin center.
