I belive the certificate does not match your post location. (i.e. in a browser when you go to https://www.netplaza.com the browser complains that the certificate does not match the DNS of the machine and asks if you want to continue. The cert is for netplaza.com. The certs are generally for specific machines, not entire domains. I think the same thing is happening on your command line binary, but it does not allow you to continue as it connot verify authenticity based on DNS. I do not know if there is a flag to disable and allow pass through, I would think so. Hope this helps. -Dean > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of H.
