vmware view 5.0 - ssl certificate

Hi guys,

I use vmware view 5.0 and since I use the new version of vmware view client 5.0 or later I have a message :

VMware View cannot verify the identity of the server you have contacted. Your credentials will not be secure..

I created a certificate for my view connection server with a Certificate from my CA.

I followed this link : http://derek858.blogspot.com/2012/05/how-to-create-custom-microsoft-ca-ssl.html

When I try to connect to vmware view I have a message : Failed to connect to the View Connection Server. The server provided a certificate that is invalid. Seel below for more details :

- The hos name in the certificate is invalid or does not match.

What can I do to fix this problem?

Kind regards.

It's in the installation guide for 5.0. http://pubs.vmware.com/view-50/topic/com.vmware.ICbase/PDF/view-50-installation.pdf

Look at the section called Configuring SSL Certificates for View Connection Server and Security Server" on page 76.

Note that the procedure for View 5.1 is different.
