Thanks for the info. That does sound like the problem and makes a lot of since
since the registration network can not get out to verify the certificate. I
attempted the proxy passthrough but I could not get it to work. At first I
thought my version 4.0.1 was the issue since I saw some other threads saying
4.0.1 didn't support passthrough. Since upgrading to 4.1.0 I still have the
same issue. What should I check when it comes to bypass. I check the box under
trapping to enable it and list my websites under proxy passthrough. Thanks.

Having some issues with our wildcard certificate on Packetfence registration
portal. When a workstation is unregistered and goes to the registration portal
you get a message in IE that there is a problem with the website certificate.
When you click continue everything works fine after that. I do not have this
problem with our certificate in Firefox. On the admin page the certificate
works for both IE and Firefox. Any ideas?
My first guess would be that IE cannot reach an outside server from
the registration network to verify the certificate OCSP/CRL status.
Accessing the admin page from the "live" network with Internet access
works as expected.
If so, these articles about a similar Mac problem may be of interest:

Another possibility is that the registration network's DNS server/name
aren't using a name that matches the wildcard domain in the
certificate. A wildcard certificate issued for *.gtcc.edu<http://gtcc.edu/>
will
match packetfence.gtcc.edu<http://packetfence.gtcc.edu/>, but not
packetfence.somesubdomain.gtcc.edu<http://packetfence.somesubdomain.gtcc.edu/>
or packetfence.gtcc.local...
