Currently running Messenger 5.0 on OS X 10.3.9.

No issues using the Personal tab.

On the corporate tab, I would like to connect to my employer's instance of
LCS. Our Ops team requires a certificate, which I have. What is the method
for letting Messenger know I have the cert?

Already tried loading the cert in Mac IE (I know it is not supported, but
was hoping Messenger looked to that cert store). No dice, as pretty much
expected.

Anyone successful with this or find any docs? All search methods for this
come up empty.

Thanks,
Dean

Download a copy of the certificate to your dekstop (or whatever),
right-click and open with Keychain Access. You will be prompted to Add
Certificates. Choose "X509Anchors" as the Keychain and click OK. If
you require a password at any point, provide your keychain password.

This is actually on Mactopia. However, I cannot get this to work via
my work VPN from home, or on my Mac at work. I know the cert is being
picked up because I get a different error once the cert is added to my
keychain. Good luck.
