Thanks for the reply. Our cas server is ulogin.utah.edu, it's cert's CN is *.utah.edu.
It didn't even occur to me that java was doing the server validation behind the scenes... Now I am even more curious as to why our java CASified apps can talk to our CAS server with no problem but my apache server with mod_auth_cas gets the name validation error. I wonder if there is something amiss in my openssl installation (or mod_auth_cas build?) on the apache server (running on windows server). There is probably a clue in here somewhere: C:\OPENSS~1>openssl s_client -host ulogin.utah.edu -port 443 Loading 'screen' into random state - done CONNECTED(000000E0) depth=1 C = US, O = DigiCert Inc, OU = www.digicert.com, CN = DigiCert Glo verify error:num=20:unable to get local issuer certificate verify return:0 --- Certificate chain 0 s:/C=US/ST=Utah/L=Salt Lake City/O=The University of Utah/OU=Office of ation Technology/CN=*.utah.edu i:/C=US/O=DigiCert Inc/OU=www.digicert.com/CN=DigiCert Global CA 1 s:/C=US/O=DigiCert Inc/OU=www.digicert.com/CN=DigiCert Global CA i:/C=US/O=Entrust.net/OU=www.entrust.net/CPS incorp. by ref.
