RE: IE Connectivity Issue

2001-06-13 Thread Wallace, William
IE can have problems with Verisign global certs if the host name you're using in the URL doesn't match the site name in the certificate. When this occurs you get the misleading "Server Not Found..." error. Although not a practical solution, you can make IE work by checking "Check for server cert

RE: HTTP/1.1 persistant connections & mod_ssl

2001-05-30 Thread Wallace, William
You normally need to configure Apache to turn off persistant connections under HTTPS for IE. This is to avoid a bug in IE where the browser asumes the connection is still there even if the server has timed it out and closed it. When this occurs IE throws up an incorrect error message saying there

IE is closing the connection after the handshake has successfully completed. It can do this if the address you're using to access the site doesn't match the address within the certificate. -Original Message- From: Brendon Maragia To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 11/14/00 5:54 AM Subject: Re: M

Local Director supports SSL3 sticky sessions so if you're just using SSL3 LD will send requests with SSL sessions back to the original server that the load balancer picked. It doesn't handle SSL2 at all in this configuration though and you'll end up seeing error pages in the browser. If you do ne

RE: KeepAlive and mod_ssl

2000-10-20 Thread Wallace, William
Internet Explorer behaves terribly when using keep-alive connections over HTTPS. After downloading a page it sometimes assumes the connection to the server is still open, even if the server has timed it out and closed it. When it tries to reuse the connection it will throw up a spurious error page

Does the address you're using to access the site match the site name in the certificate? IE chokes with some SGC certificates if it doesn't. You can turn off this behavior in IE by checking "Check for server certificate revocation" in the advanced security settings. > -Original Message- >

Verisign certificate + IE5.1 problem.

I've an unusual problem with IE5.00.2919.6307 (and IE5.5 as well) in combination with a new certificate from Verisign. SSL works for every other browser and with the problem browser when older certificates (or certificates from a different CA) are used. In the browser settings checking "Check for
