Check the time the PC is set to and the times of the server and CA certificatess
with:

openssl x509 -in cert.pem -noout -dates

If these all seem OK then it may be a validity nesting issue. The CA
certificates times should cover the period of any certificates it issues with
MS validity checking. That is notBefore(CA) must be earlier than
notBefore(server) and notAfter(CA) must be after notAfter(server).
