Hi,

the java problem might be a different issue. Is your client using JSSE
1.0.3? Was your CA cert selfsigned with openssl?

I'm having similar problems, as have other people. Try setting
property javax.net.debug=all to get a log out of JSSE. Does it say
certificate_unknown?

There are several threads about this issue on usenet but I have not
been able to get useful hints up to now. Currently following these
trails:

- The CA cert does not have critical extension digitalSignature in
addition to keyEncipherment
- The ordering of the DN-components in server-cert.subject is
different from ca-cert.subject
- There is a workaround for a protocol bug in openssl-libs which JSSE
doesnt like. See message news:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
