CA is unknown and cannot be verified, 2. Certificates CN field (Common Name) doesn't match the DNS name of server, 3. Servers SSL certificate is too old or is on a CRL list. 4. and as usual other SSL implementation problems ;) Try connecting to HTTPS website with web browser and get the certificate. See if it's valid and the CN coresponds with DNS name. You must connnect to dns name (not IP adress - it won't work). I would start with that. Krzysztof
