Says it uses some fancy root c.a., but I still get "untrusted" popup, was I schwamboozled (I've got AMEX on speed dial) or do I need to install some wierd intermediate certs?

Yet, when you click on the "demo" link, the cert don't throw any errors... that is misleading and grounds for American Express [expletive deleted] them in their eye sockets.

Sounds like you did not install the root CA. I have the same cert on one off my servers and it works great. PM me for the URL and you can test it for yourself.

I agree with Monte, you probably only install the cert. they given, if you are using Apache, you may need to install their root cert. bunch as well!

By install, I installed the self-signed GTE CyberTrust cert in IIS and still nothing.

I tried installing that with Plesk but failed. Any one have successfully installed it with PSA 2.5.x ?

With ChainedSSL, you will get two certs. You will get an intermediary cert and the actual cert. Both have to be installed. The intermediate is the cabundle. I have two installed on a cpanel server with no problems what so ever. They work like a charm.

I have no experience with plesk, but I am sure it can be done, but it would probably take some command line monkeying to customize the vhost entry to point to the intermediary cert.

Okay, so I've installed the GTE root cert, their intermediate baltimore something or other cert and on the server, the cert path is correct GTE > Intermediate > mydomain.com.
When I hit the secure site, I get an untrusted root message and the cert path don't include the GTE root CA or intermediate CA, what gives?!?!?!?!?argonblue.com | sales | 800.710.8004

Would you pm me a link to the page that you are having the problem with. I think I know why you are having a problem, but want to make sure I am correct before I give you a *dumb* answer.

I took a closer look, I assume we are talking about th e argon blue site. 2 things:
1) On pages that you want to call securely, get rid of the live chat link. That button image is being pulled from another server and is not pulled over ssl, so it will cause a popup every time.
2) You bought your cert for WWW.yourdomain.com so every time you link to a page you want to call securely, you must link to it as http://WWW.yourdomain.com (capital letters are for emphasis only).Marty Hoskins

You're not reading what I said... the certification path is different on the server and client for some ready. I understand "Do you want to display insecure items" and that I have to use the same hostname as registered in the cert, that's not the error that I get...
On the server, it says the CA path is GTE CA \ Intermediate CA \ My Certificate and when I view the "untrusted" certificate on the client, I see My Certificate only.

Okay, I see it now. I swear, though, when I checked it in Mozilla, I only got the other errors, not the untrusted cert error. There is something still wrong with the install that is preventing IE 5.5, at least, from recognizing the intermediary. I am not sure what it could be except that the ca bundle is not installed correctly.
Are you on a cpanel server or ???
I am not sure I can help much more without access to the server and a copy of the private key that was generated with the csr and the email that you received that contained your cert, which I am not so bold as to ask for that.Marty Hoskins
