I am using a digital certificate to access government sites in Denmark.
The certificate is, however, only valid for two years so then you will
have to get a new certificate.

Of course, this is what I have done. And I have placed the new
certificate in my keyring [through /Applications/Utilities/Keychain
Access].

But Safari still uses the old certificate which is now obsolete. It
doesn't even help to delete it from the keyring; it is till chosen by
Safari. And though it shows two certificates [and marks the first one as
no more valid], it still uses it - and I see no way to force it to use
the new.

I have successfully removed the obsolete certificate from FireFox and it
works as it should. But not so with Safari.
