My test originally was this <Location /> SSLVerifyClient require SSLVerifyDepth 10 SSLOptions +StdEnvVars </location> Same issue whether based on a directory or using the root location. I'm still trying to figure out why one and only IE works, but no others. I've tried HTTP Analyzer plugin for IE which only shows a single error (nothing else) ERROR_INTERNET_SECURITY_CHANNEL_ERROR Nothing else at all in the trace. If I go to the root url (which is SSL Enabled, but no client verify) I will try your suggestion of wireshark. -----Original Message----- From: Eric Covener [mailto:covener@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, October 27, 2009 10:17 AM To: users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Requesting help with Smart Card Client Certificate Authentication issue.

Have you used wireshark to see if Apache is sending the proper list of trusted certificates that line up with whoever signed your certs in your HW device? Perhaps http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_ssl.html#sslcertificatechainfile or http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_ssl.html#sslcacertificatepath might help? -- Eric Covener covener@xxxxxxxxx --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
