Thanks for the reply Richard.
Are you able to supply any details on the issue? Is this a known
problem that was already being worked on, or is this a brand new
issue? If this has been around for a while, do you have a timetable
on a fix?
Actually, is your problem in the released FDS 7.1 you downloaded from
the download site, or did you build it yourself?
I've checked the list and have not seen anything regarding this error
message. If there's anything I can do to help please let me know.
Thanks.
- Kevin

No, it's not a cert issue. It's a problem with the core server, and
we're working on a fix right now.
