hello,

I'm using windows certificate services to generate the server cert. During the *.cer file creation I specify the fqdn as common name.
When I run the secure gateway config wizard it fails at the end stating 'secure gateway service could not start'. the SG event log states that

"the cert with id <ID> for virtual server <fqdn>:443 has subject commonname <fqdn>. the subject commonname must match the server name of the virtual host."

the subject commonname does match the server name, so I don't know whats going on. I've enven hardcoded it in host file. any ideas?
