tryingto rely on the default path for sslrootcert.
Hopefully someone more familiar with the Azure cross-signing setup
sees something obvious and chimes in, but in the meantime there are a
couple things I can think to ask:
1. Are you sure that the server is actually putting the cross-signed
intermediate in the chain it's serving to the client?
2. What version of OpenSSL? There used to be validation bugs with
alternate trust paths; hopefully you're not using any of those (I
think they're old as dirt), but it doesn't hurt to know.
3. Can you provide a sample public certificate chain that should
validate and doesn't?
Thanks,
