And that solution worked fine for me.

Just an FYI for anyone using TLS in Mac Messanger and OSX Leopard
(10.5).
The instructions in the Mac Messenger Deployment Guide for adding an
X509
Certificate to the OSX Keychain do not work on Leopard. In previous
OSX
versions the "X509 Anchors" keychain is added to your keychain by
default
and is an option when you double click a certificate for im****t.
With
Leopard however you must manually open your
"Applications/Utilities/Keychain
Accces", go to "File" then "Add Keychain". Then navigate to
/System/Library/Keychains
where you should see the file "X509Anchors", add this keychain. This
keychain
is the keychain that must contain the correct certificate your
cor****ation
uses for TLS trans****t. If your corp happens to use a standard
public
certificate of course you will never have to worry about this, but
if
it is an non-included certificate you must im****t to to that
keychain.
did this work for anyone? it surely didn't work for me as i don't have
X509Anchors in the System/Library/Keychains folder, and have no idea where
to download it from... so... still stuck with "not able to connect to the
server...
