Hi Tomasz,
Thank you for the info. It appears that for some reason the Windows 7
computer is interpreting one of the intermediate certificates as the root
cert and since this is not trusted it does not authenticate properly. If I
uncheck the box for “Do not prompt the user…” I do get the prompt, but the
Root CA in the pop up is not the root, but one of the intermediates (shows
“Root CA: USERTrust RSA Certification Authority” in the popup). The cert
chain should look like this:
AddTrust External CA Root
USERTrust RSA Certification Authority
InCommon RSA Server CA
radius.amherst.edu
AddTrust is set to trusted by CAT, but not USERTrust, yet the computer thinks
USERTrust is the root? Is there a way to have the CAT trust both of these on
Windows? CAT works fine on Mac OS X and iOS 9 devices.
