(You can wildcard > the last node in the alternate names.) myserver is not the same asmyserver.com If you see "http://mysite.somewhere"; in your browser, then the name "mysite.somewhere" needs to be embedded in the certificate, and this need to be precise. You can't arbitrarily leave parts of the names out, or insert some kind of approximation (with the exception of a wildcard entry in a cert, subject to specific rules). What URL are you typing into Firefox? What DNS name have you embedded into the cert, and how have you done it? Regards, Graham --
