• How to accept a new ssl certificate in Thunderbird?

  7.15.15
  I can't get or send emails on my cell phone two days ago.
  - Neither the "Configuration Options for certificates" worked to bring in the certificate that I use that allows you to send and receive e-mail. Under the "Digital Signature" or "Encryption" when I press "Select" to select a certificate, I get the pop-up message "Certificate Manager cannot locate a valid certificate... ». When I press 'View certificates' certificate that I use is listed under 'Servers' and the 'authorities' and is up to date.
  -In addition, under Tools - Options - Advanced - certificates for: "when a server requests my personal certificate", I selected "Ask Me every time" and left "query OSCP responder servers to confirm...". ', the box is checked.

  I think that this problem is bound to accept a new ssl certificate has been recently renewed. I've never had this problem before. How to start accepting a new certificate?

  Thank you.

  No you can not communicate with the server using a common product of Mozilla. In a short while you will not be able to co interact with it with any product. The operator/administrator of the server needs to fix their server to issue certificates 1024-bit or better. Or stop using TLS.

  The best explanation of this change and it's because I've seen is here https://weakdh.org/
  (right at the bottom of the page is what you need to do stuff)

  In essence, that the server does not have a security flaw serious patched and Mozilla products have been modified to not interact with servers that have not corrected the vulnerability. Vulnerability leaves you open to man in the middle attack on piracy.

• Install a new SSL certificate for Server 2008 R2

  Hello

  We have a Windows 2008 R2 server running of the machine. As a company that manages payments, we need to be registered PCI DSS and the scan picked up a point of failure is that we do not have an SSL certificate installed. I bought a via GoDaddy and followed the instructions on their site to install it, but the PCI DSS Analysis is always a failure for the following reason: -.

  "The following certificate was at the top of the certificate chain sent by the remote host, but is signed by an unknown certification authority."

  The certificate at the top of the string is the default "integrated". How to promote the certificate GoDaddy installed at the top of the chain?

  Thank you

• CA-signed SSL certificates on vCenter 5.1 installation (server or device)

  I recently updated my 5.0 to 5.1 ESXi ESXi hosts and they all kept CA-signed SSL certificates that I installed previously. I did a new install of vCenter 5.1 server where the box even ran SSO, inventory, vCenter Server and Manager Update Services. After installing, everything worked perfectly except that none of the vCenter services used my CA-signed SSL certificate - only 5.1 ESXi hosts had these.

  So, I followed the instructions in replacing default vCenter 5.1 and ESXi certificates PDF found at http://www.vmware.com/resources/techresources/10318. The document is terrible. For example, page 10 lists the locations by three default certificates SSL on Windows 2008. None of these paths are correct. The first a typo of extra space between "Program" and "Data" and the other two say "Program Files" when they should have been "ProgramData". This is just the beginning of the problems.

  If you follow the instructions to the letter, you'll break vCenter. I got frustrated and thought I'd give the vCenter 5.1 device a shot. With regard to the Certificates SSL signed by CA, it was worse. The vCenter 5.1 device can even automatically generate a new SSL certificate if you change the host name (turn on generation auto-certificat, change of hostname and restart). It gives an error 653 during the boot process and keeps the original of the certificate. Even bother trying the steps on page 18 of the above-mentioned guide - you will get just the same mistake 653.

  It seems to me that VMware did not all tests around the CA-signed SSL certificate on vCenter 5.1 installation. It's amazing to me that the installation of the SSL certificate is so tedious for ESXi and vCenter when vShield Manager 5.1 has a very simple process that works well (and is similar to the installation procedure for Certificate SSL on the DRAC, ASR, breeding various firewalls, etc.).

  I did a lot of research on Google and found various articles on the installation of the SSL certificate, but most were based on GA pre - 5.1 products. If you have any installation of certificates SSL CA-signed success with vCenter Server or device 5.1 GA, let me know how you got around some of these issues. Please indicate if your vCenter Server or device will run on a 5.1 GA ESXi host as well. Please do not answer about vCenter 5.0 - I had no problem with SSL certificates (other than it was more painful to be).

  Thanks in advance,

  Nate

  Finally I managed to install giving him to 127.0.0.1 instead of the period of INVESTIGATION, accessible from the outside of the vCenter server, it's very well in my case the vCenter and VUM server are on the same VM but its not exactly ideal for deployments of more large.

• ACS 3.3 invalid or corrupted SSL certificate installed

  Hello

  I installed a new SSL certificate to replace the old one which was about to expire. After this update of cert, I can access is no longer the ACS server for admin purposes. I get the error "cannot establish connection cifered because the certificate presented by is invalid or damaged. Error code:-8101 "or something similar that the message is in Spanish.

  I tried to restart the CSAdmin service without success. I also watched ath the different CS tools but none of them does this nor is the Guide to GBA.

  Is there a way to remove the certificate from the command line or other?

  AY help would be appreciated because I don't want to reinstall/rebuild the server.

  Thank you

  Niels

  If the EC is 3.3.4 or below then it can be disabled through the registry. 4.x do not have registry settings to tweak.

  For 4.x

  A possible workaround we have is that if a GBA backup taken prior to activation of the HTTPS is there, we can restore the same and work around the problem.

  For 3.3.x

  To restore access using http on your server, you must change the registry setting

  to disable the https. Here's the location of the key "reg":

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \SOFTWARE \Cisco \CiscoAAAv3.2 \CSAdmin \Config \HTTPSSupport

  Change this value from 2 to 1.

  Kind regards

• See 4.5 Security server problems since installing SSL certificate

  I'm having some very strange problems with my view view connection Server 4.5 (front and back) running. I hope someone could shed some light on the problem, because I have tried everything I know to do this job properly.

  Before installing a certificate self-signed server of external connection again, I was running the default VMware certificate. Everything worked very well in this configuration. I installed a new self-signed certificate and now I'm having intermittent problems, the connection to the server:

  1. in the connection from a windows machine I CAN reach the site URL/HTTP to download the client from the view. Once I run the client to view I got the following error: failed connection to connect to the server view. Network error.

  2. I tried to connect via the IP address of the server, ensure that the external URL is correct (everything worked fine before the installation of the SSL certificate).

  3. completely removed security server and reinstalled, restart the services etc. Still not connect on some machines. Connecting from a Wyse compatible iPad still works, never a problem.

  4. If I connect the VPN of the company on the machine that does not work, then launches the Client to view and connect everything works as it should. When I disconnect the VPN and try to connect again, I can connect very well! So I need to connect to the VPN to connect to browse... its really weird. I checked DNS etc and everything is identical with the default certificate. I did so that machines that have problems approve the certificate and I also followed the Cisco ASA firewall logs, I do not see happneing anything different between periods of work and does not.

  Someone at - he never lived something along these lines or can think of anything I can try?

  Thank you!

  I came across this same thing.  The conflict is between the customer to view and your new self-signed SSL certificate.  More precisely the thing causing the problem is the version of the wininet.dll file provided with IE8.  The wininet.dll file provided with IE8 causes some kind of conflict with the customer view 4.5 (if using other SSL certificate that the server generated one) and will not allow the client to view 4.5 software to connect to your server security.  I reported this to VMware (2 weeks ago) so that they should be aware of the problem.

  If you remove your new SSL certificate and return to the one created by the display server then everything works perfectly again.  If you are using a machine with IE6 or IE7 XP remove IE8, it also works very well.  I tried taking the file wininet.dll from XP SP3 IE6 machine and restore this file after installing IE8 and everything seemed to work ok, but probably not the best solution.

  Bottom line is until VMware resolves the conflict with their client to view, you may not use any SSL certificate (other than that of the server is) If you are going to connect to windows machines running IE8 or newer.

• SSL certificate Expirtation concentrator

  I'm getting an alert after my 3000 Concentrator: SSL certificate will expire in 26 daysIssuer. It seems that this (public/private) and a certificate of identity is issued by one of our servers 2003 (not 3rd party). I'm tempted to press the buttons of survivor on each of these certificates; However, being new to this arena, I'm leary which may (or may not) happen. My research told me that this can cause the rejected certificate. Can someone give me an overview of what these certificates and what do I find myself comfortable to breathe again status? Thank you.

  The hub is trying to tell you the SSL certificate installed on the hub will expire in 26 days unless a new SSL certificate is recreated.

  To create a new SSL certificate, go to:

  The administration | The certificate management | SSL certificates

  In the interface that shows the SSL certificate with an expiry Date of mm/dd/yyyy, click

  on the generate under the field of action. Accept the default setting and the client on the generate button.

• Requirments for URLLoader() on Android SSL certificate

  Recently the certificate SSL on my site https://www.jollysnpas.com has been updated and now all https requests, made by the URLLoader() on Android are denied. This is only a problem when running on a real android device.

  I try to get my hosting provider to investigate, however they may not be very useful so I hope someone here can determine why the new SSL certificate is rejected so I can get to fix their SSL certificate.

  to reproduce the error, the following code illustrates the problem.

  }

  The code works correctly by running anywhere, but android, showing the contents of the file returned by the URL query. The managed code correctly with the old SSL certificate, but not the new SSL certificate. now, it will fail with the error.

  error: Error #2032: error in workflow. URL: https://www.jollysnaps.com/ Type: ioError

  It's a bit missleading error like what actually happens is android refuses to make the URL request, because it does not trust the SSL certificate and therefore will not send the data over an unreliable link.

  If the URL is replaced by a Web server with a real such as SSL certificate.

  https://www.GoDaddy.com/

  Then, the code works correctly.

  To be clear that I am looking to establish what is inconsistent between the SSL for the site certificate https://www.jollysnaps.com/ and the URLLoader running on an Android device, so I can report to my Web host because they don't seem to take seriously my problem.

  Thanks in advance

  Well it turns out that after watching this post

  olation-error-in-Adobe-Flash-MOVI http://StackOverflow.com/questions/6142137/Bad-Certificate-Name-causes-Security-sandbox-VI

  I discovered the solution.

  The certificate was changed from

  TO

  jollysnaps.com

  While https://www.jollysnaps.com/ applications work well in iOS, BlackBerry and OSX on Android, they fail, however, wish to https://jollysnaps.com/ work.

• Red vCenter - unable to check CA (PSC) signed SSL certificate vCenter VMware

  I am trying to deploy a new Horizon view 7 based on vSphere environment 6 U2 to replace our pod 5.3 view existing. I have a Windows Server vCenter Server with separate PSC of Windows. I used the PSC signed the SSL certificate for vCenter and downloaded and added the certificate authority root for the required workstations and servers via Group Policy. If I navigate to vCenter from your desktop with CA root installed all is well on the HTTPS front. I added this vCenter Server in my environment view but it appears in red on the dashboard view. I clicked on the vcenter Server and checked the certificate, but at no time should you go green. The two connection servers have the CA root installed and if I launch a browser from the connection to the server itself, then navigate to the vCenter FQDN certificate is approved.

  Any ideas?

  I cannot create pools for this reason that the view is not currently communicate with vCenter as well and it won't let me choose a virtual machine model.

  If you need to know more details please let me know and I'll happily supply.

  Thanks in advance.

  Having re-read the Horizon view documentation 7 to confirm that I had taken the correct steps already, I decided to restart both of my new server connection, that solved the problem. My vCenter server now shows in green in the dashboard and I was able to successful deployment of desktop computers.

• VCenter Server 5.1 SSL certificate update - error

  Hi all

  We set up a new Windows 2008 R2 server as a vCenter Server 5.1

  Now, I try to install the new certificates for all parts of vCenter (server, inventory, web client service,...) with the Windows certification authority.

  I'm stuck at the update server certificate SSL vCenter with the 'Certificate SSL Automation Tool'.

  This is part 5. in this guide (5. the cmd screen shot):

  http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 2041600 #updatestepsplanner

  All credentials are correct, but I still get the same error (vc-update - ssl.log):

  So I tried the manual way, as it is mentioned in this guide:
  http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC & docType = kc & docTypeID = DT_KB_1_1 & externalId = 2035005

  I'm stuck here too, get a 'result of Method Invocation: vpx.fault.SecurityConfigFault ' after ""Invoke method ': "

  1. Go to https://localhost/mob/?moid=vpxd-securitymanager & vmodl = 1 on the server vCenter Server and load the certificates for the configuration using the managed object browser.
  2. Click continue if you are prompted with a warning on this certificate.
  3. Enter a vCenter Server administrator user name and password when prompted.
  4. Click reloadSslCertificate.
  5. Click the calling method. If successful, the window displays this message: result of Invocation of method: Sub.

  
  

  I tried to fix this, but there is not really a solution for this:

  http://communities.VMware.com/thread/429035

  so, I need help with this question

  SOLVED!

  Steps to follow:

  1. stop the vCenter service

  2. search for your ID in LS_ServiceID.prop in the folder C:\ProgramData\VMware\VMware VirtualCenter

  3. copy this ID (e.g. {C4672589-9258-42B1-90E2-1EF268BBD402}: 5 )

  4. change your vpxd.cfg in the same folder and replace

  vCenterService

  with

  your ID

  5. start vCenter Service

  Then, the SSL automation tool works!

  You need to undo changes.

  I currently have vCenter 5.5 under Windows 2008 R2.  I've been thinking to replace my Windows with the appliance vCenter vCenter virtual.

  I have read the documentation on the SSL certificates for vCenter.  I bought a RapidSSL SSL certificate on my current server vCenter.  It seems that everything is working correctly, but the documentation I read says I need a different cert for various services such as inventory, Journal browser and AutoDeploy Service.

  VCenter requires there really that many different certificates?
