Actually, IE does get through the handshake. There is a name conflict
because we are going direct to a machine rather than going through a
global load balancer.
When there is a cert name conflict, IE warns you and will happily
continue if you direct it to. Remember I said it gets through the
handshake.
The certs are VeriSign signed (within the last month) with an
intermediate CA file installed on the secure server.
If your suggestion were the case, we would not get successful content
requests to our in house lab.
Thanks anyway.
