The code is very simple, just performs a bind and returns success or failure.<BR /><BR />The problem we're having is that on HP-UX 11.00(JDK 1.4.1.01) the code throws an exception:<BR /><BR />javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: java.security.cert.CertificateException: CA certificate does not include basic constraints extension<BR /><BR />This code runs without error (has been tested) on a 1.4.0 and 1.4.1 VM, under Windows 2000.<BR /><BR />What could be causing this? The fact that it runs fine on other machines leads me to suspect that it must be something to do with the HP machine, hence my posting this query here.<BR /><BR />Thanks.
