Hello Dan,

This message (or something very much like it) is seen in FMP 8.5 and 9 when 
there is a problem with the server.pem file on the client computer. The 
server.pem file helps FMP negotiate the TCP/IP network initialization, and it 
won't happen if FMP finds something amiss in this file.

One easy way to check is to replace the client's server.pem file with one that 
works. If you're still getting the error, you can cross that possible point of 
failure from your list.


Best wishes,
