"Unable to connect using SSL - error code 5"

Problem: "Unable to connect using SSL - error code 5"

Version: VPN 1.0.0

History:
1. At beginning everything was so smooth, I could connect to VPN server thru VPN gateways.
2. a couple of days later I kept getting this error on all my test VPN gateway machines.
3. After restarting the WinGate/VPN engine for a couple of times, It said the certificate was expired.
4. Yesterday I generated a new certificate, and import the configuration to several test VPN gateways, and all of them worked.
5. Last night I reboot the WinGate server machine. Today unfortunately I got the same error again on all test VPN gateways. This time obviously it can't be that the cert. is expired.

Could you please help me out? Highly appreciated!!

This error occurs when the SSL layer is unable to negotiate a secure connection. This can happen when, as you said, the certificate is expired. What is the current expiry date of the certificate ?

Actually I found the problem: it's because my C: drive was totally full. Wingate complained the expiration date although it's not the reason. After I cleaned up C:, the certificate showed again. :-)

Thanks for reply.
