If you're just connecting to an encrypted server as the example does, 
you are getting an error because your system does not trust the 
certificate of the server.  It wouldn't have anything to do with your 
application unless the server requires a client certificate.

The easiest thing to do, I think, is to visit the site with your PC web 
browser and look at the SSL information.  I found very helpful posts in 
the archives as well as some good bits in the SSL examples themselves.

My iSeries did not trust the CA that signed the certificate of the bank 
site I was loading.  I had to export the CA from my PC and import it to 
DCM.  Then I added it to my trusted CA list and assigned it to my 
application.

The difference for me was that the application didn't work until after 
my system was shut down (which probably means restart the ADMIN 
interface).  The instructions had a restart earlier; I had to do it later.

Good luck!
