   gargoyle to All   
   Problem with "Certificate" on website   
   24 Dec 05 21:26:10   
   
   From: gargoyle@anywhere.net   
      
   I'm using NS 7.2, and I've suddenly encountered a problem accessing my   
   work site (JCPenney).  When I get on to the site and then click on the   
   associate menu, I get this:   
      
   "jcpenney.com is a site that uses a security certificate   
   to encrypt data during transmission, but its certificate expired on   
   12/23/05 3:59 PM.   
      
   You should check to make sure your computer's time (currently set to   
   Saturday, December24, 2005 21:11:07) is correct.   
      
   Would you like to continue anyway?"   
      
   I click OK, and then get this:   
      
   "Network Error (ssl_domain_invalid)   
      
   Your request contacted a host which presented a certificate with a   
   Common Name that did not match the domain requested.   
   This is typically caused by a Web Site presenting an incorrect or   
   invalid certificate, but could be because of a configuration error."   
      
   So I checked out the Help section on certificates, but there's nothing   
   there that I can "fix".  I clicked on "View Certificate", but that   
   does no good either.  Does anyone have an idea if this a problem on MY   
   end, or on JCPenney's end?  I can't access the associate menu with   
   either NS 7.2, or my old IE dinosaur version.  (And of course they are   
   closed tomorrow for Xmas, so I have no way to check my schedule for   
   next week!)   
      
   Thanks for any help!
