Reciving error: (GSKit) Peer not recognized or badly formatted message received.

[Grizzly Malchow <grizzlym@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

   I'm trying to use a FedEx web service and I am receiving the following
   error when posting to the service:

   (GSKit) Peer not recognized or badly formatted message received.


   As the message states, this is related to GSKit. I'm not quite sure
   what it means though and I can't find any information about that
   particular message.

   I did read that FedEx moved to a chained SSL certificate with Verisign
   on March 19^th 2009 in their test environment, which I'm using. I
   don't know if that has any significance.

   Since I am able to do other https requests successfully, I can only
   guess that GSKit doesn't recognize, or trust the certificate from
   either the root or intermediary CA's. Or both maybe?


   I thought maybe I might need to do import the certificates into my CA,
   but everything I've read states no action needs to be taken with
   chained SSL certificates.


   Here's what the debug log looks like.

   I was wondering if anyone else has encountered this problem and what
   they did to resolve the issue.


   Thanks in advance,
