SYMPTOMS
A remote procedure call (RPC) with SSL may not work, and may generate an &quot;Error 5, Access Denied&quot; error message. This may occur even if the SSL three-way handshake is successful.



CAUSE
RPC only looks for certificates in the CA store, and does not look in the ROOT store. Because of this, RPC cannot find certificates in the ROOT store.
