I usually tell people to clear their cookies when i update certs, sometimes this works. seems to me they know basic sysadmin shit and throw it on there to confuse us.

AD. Engineer would always make sure that the certificate has not expired. If it has expired, they would need to update the private key on the web server. I would disagree with C because it would be a waste of time for engineer to update the root certificate on client computer certificate store, as that would need to be done on everyone's machine attempting to access company's secure server. The way you do this would be through Group Policy, or by using a paid certificate which already has global root CA on their stores.

it implies it's THE company's SECURE SITE. as it's secure and the user is getting that error, it's a certificate problem thing.
