Re: IIS4 no longer requests client certs issued by our CA!

OK, this is getting weird!

WFetch 1.3 works! (Win2003)
WFetch 1.2 works! (Win2000)
IE 6sp1 doesn't work (Win2000, WinXP)
IE 5.5sp1 doesn't work (WinNT4)
Netscape 4.7 doesn't work (Win2000)

On further investigation....
If I supply an incorrect certificate to WFetch:
0x8009030d [slib]: Could not AcquireCredentialsHandle
0x8009030d Failed to AcquireCredentials()

It would appear that WFetch works, because regardless of what CA issued
certs IIS asks for, it forcibly supplies the correct one (no authentication
handshake appears to take place, though that may be hidden in the SSL
handshake)

If I use any of the other certs built into WFetch, I get an HTTP 403.7
(since I don't have the root CA info for "jaroslad's test certificate
server". The "valid" test cert from VeriSign doesn't work (WFetch 1.2 gets
HTTP 403.7) as it has expired.


Help!

Soon'ish
Craig
