You should view the certificate and that should tell you who created it and when. If you have an internal server then I suspect that the certificate was created with a certain lifespan and now someone needs to create a new certificate that expires in 5 or so years. I don't think it can be down to MS, the certificate is for an internal machine or domain so it's probably something from some years ago and it's been forgotten about. -- Brian Morrison ___ Support@pidgin.im mailing list Want to unsubscribe?

RE: Certificate could not be validated
When I asked them about this, they said they thought it might be due to a Microsoft update. Is that possible? Other than that, they didn't know what could be causing the problem. -Original Message- From: David Woolley [mailto:for...@david-woolley.me.uk] Sent: Wednesday, May 17, 2017 1:55 PM To: Evalee Gress; support@pidgin.im Subject: Re: Certificate could not be validated On 17/05/17 18:46, Evalee Gress wrote: > > I'm not sure which computer's data and time you're referring to or how > to check that.

RE: Certificate could not be validated
David, thanks for your reply. I'm not sure which computer's data and time you're referring to or how to check that. We use pidgin in-house within our company. I'm not sure what you mean by the "service provider." I’ve used Pidgin for years without this problem.

Check the computer's date and time, as it says. If they are correct, contact the service provider by suitably secure means and ask them if they are really using an expired certificate. If they say they are, point out that it is very bad practice, then make a risk assessment as how likely it is that a hacker may have cracked the encryption by now. If they say that their certificate is valid, assume you are talking to an impostor, and do not use the service to send anything that you wouldn't want your local organised crime boss, to know, and do not receive any files unless you have a deep understanding of how files can be used to plant malware and you are certain that that is not possible in your case. Similarly, if they say they know it is expired but your risk assessment determines it is too likely to have been compromised. Or preferably wait until they have fixed it, at their end, before continuing to use the service. Do not ask anyone you do not know and trust to make the risk assessment for you. ___ Support@pidgin.im mailing list Want to unsubscribe?
