Problem Using GoDaddy Wildcard Certificate

Thomas,

Most wildcard certificates that I have encountered do NOT include the domain, only subdomains.  In other words "something.mydomain.com" would work but not simply "domain.com".  I know you tried the actual CN, but perhaps some component is having an issue with the asterisk.  If you wanted to make another test, you could try using a server name  which is similar to something.mydomain.com.
