    HTTP 403 observed while accessing web service hosted on IIS from UNIX

    We have developed a client for webservice in c++ using gSOAP. The client runs on AIX unix system. Webservice is SSL enabled & is hosted on windows IIs. We are using OpenSSL on AIX. While invoking the service we get an error (403 Forbidden Access). If we change the settings of IIS to ignore client certificate then the service responds but if it s set to require client certificate or accept client certificate then the same error is observed.
    The client has client certificate in .pem format. If we try to access this web service from X-manager then with mozilla this service is accessible with IIS settings as accept client certificate.

    Please suggest if we need to do any changes in settings or implementation?

    Thanking in advance.

    This is a permissions problem, suggest you review your security plan. Please don't post the same question in multiple forums, I don't see this as an IIS issue although installation of the certificate may still be a problem. Thanks.
