posted November 4, 2003 10:25 AM An invalid UserName, Password or Security Certificate was used for authentication. Why does this error occur? I know I am passing the right user name and password to the server through the authentication header. Also, my application works fine on other machines beside this one? |

posted November 4, 2003 10:42 AM Something failed related to the certificate, either the CA was untrusted, the date expired or the name didn't match. This behavior can be controlled via the security property or the Authentication event. |

posted November 4, 2003 11:35 AM I can't say for sure. My best guess would be that your machine probably trusts the CA of the certificate and the other machine does not. |

posted November 4, 2003 11:41 AM How do I get the machine to trust that Certificate Authority? |

posted November 4, 2003 11:53 AM You have to get the CA from the certificate authority and follow the instructions they provide. If you don't know who the certificate authority is or don't have control over this stuff, then you should set the Security property to "Ignore Untrusted Root" or override the Valid param in the Authentication event. |

posted November 4, 2003 2:42 PM I'm not using a client certificate to authenticate to a web site, but checking the certificate on the server for the following conditions. 'Requirement 1. SSL Certificate must end with .experian.com 'Requirement 2. The URL in the certificate must match the URL Retrieved from ECALS 'Requirement 3. The certificate must be from a valid certificate authority Requirement 4. The certificate must not be expired I didn't do anything to my machine to trust the certificate authority. Do you have any other ideas why the application might work on my machine and not on another.? |

posted November 4, 2003 3:28 PM Hi, Is it possibly a Windows 95 or 98 machine? If it is, has it been prepped for security as outlined in the help file on the "Windows 95/98 Security Compatibility" page? Thanks, -ken |

posted November 4, 2003 4:58 PM My program is finally working now on Windows 2000 after I manually reregistered the Dart Components. My install shield program must have a bug in it because the Dart Components didn't get registered properly. Thanks for all your help!!! |
