SYMPTOMS
========
When you access an Internet Information Server (IIS) Web site using the Secure
Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol, one of the following three errors may occur in the
client browser:
-
Internet Explorer cannot open the internet site https://site. An error
occurred in the Secure Channel Support.
-
The page cannot be displayed.
- If the IIS computer is running Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 4, an Access
Violation error may occur.
CAUSE
=====
The properties of the CA Root (issuer) match the properties of the server
certificate (subject) exactly.
RESOLUTION
==========
To resolve this problem, do not supply values that are identical to the
attributes of the CA Root when you request SSL certificates in IIS.
MORE INFORMATION

When you request an SSL certificate for IIS using Key Manager (Keyring.exe), the
following fields are required:

If the values supplied for these fields match the equivalent attributes of the
