I've been investigating Coldfusion MX and it's capability to do stuff 
with other sites over a secured location.

So far I've been unable to find a solution to some problems, maybe some 
of you can help.

First I should mention that CFMX is not acepting SLL certificates for a 
subdomain, if the certificate is for the top level domain.

You can try it yourself:

<cfhttp url="https://www.cdnow.com/"; port="443" method="get" 
resolveurl="no" throwonerror="yes">

Fails, because the certificate is presented for "cdnow.com", but it 
SHOULD accept it, because it is a subdomain of that.

<cfhttp url="https://cdnow.com/"; port="443" method="get" resolveurl="no" 
throwonerror="yes">

works as expected.

I've also been trying to get CFMX to accept a SSL certificate from one 
of our development servers (generated on the same server with MS 
Certificate Server). But to no avail.

If you try a cfhttp to the domain I always get a " Connection Failure: 
Status code unavailable" error (that's the same error you get when you 
try to open https://www.cdnow.com).

I've found something about having to add the certificate of the server 
to the cacerts store of the JVM CFMX is running on.

I've imported both the root certificate (without private key) and the 
domain certificate (also without the private key). But Coldfusion 
doesn't seem to find it/accept it.

This is starting to become annoying, because I wanted to use cfschedule 
to schedule out statistics generation script, which runs on a SSL only 
part of our server.

If anyone has found a way around this, or knows anything that might 
help, please share it with me, because I'm all out of options.
