The client's cert is on a smart card. If the client accesses our site via XP- 
never any problems. If the same client tries to access the site via Win7- it 
might work and it might not. When it doesn't work, we see the " FAILED:unable 
to get local issuer certificate" in the log.

I'm not understanding your test. I could get them to export their certificate 
(without priv. key).
Am I to run "openssl verifiy -untrusted clientcert.pem"? What will this tell me?

Thanks for your help.
