Unfortunately, I can't find X509.st, I looked at the ftp site (ftp.ddj.com) but could only find X509.txt). Anybody (Paul?) know where it is?

I would be very interested in this code as well. I am just finishing a port of the Netscape LDAP Java SDK into Smalltalk (including a set of classes implementing BER). The VisualWorks version is done and is being tested, and I will be working on the Squeak version shortly. I stayed away from introducing local variables in blocks, etc. for just that purpose. The only missing pieces are UTF_8 string encoding (anybody working on that?) and what to do with exceptions (any "official" word on the status of Craig Latta's work being incorporated into the base distribution?).
I didn't do anything special with X.509 certificates (just an attribute value to LDAP), but there are obvious advantages to being able to work with them directly as objects. Now, perhaps I am glad!
If anyone is interested in the Squeak version of the LDAP SDK, please drop me an (off-line) e-mail and I will let you know where to find it when it is ready.
