Hi Jasper,

Thanks for the reply.

First - in answer to your question - it is conflicting with some
existing policies and signatures in an IDS (intrusion detection system)
and I'm trying to help a client figure this out.

I undestand your reply and that's what I suspected, but there is still
one thing I don't understand. In trying to figure this out I instaleld
a brand new box, and put the CA and SQL Server on it. I had a root
certificate and everything but SQL Server was not affected - i.e. the
handshake was normal. Only when I turned on protocol encryption and
installed a certificate with the machine's name under the root
certificate did the encryption start. Now I'm trying to revert back to
the original - and that's what I'm unseceessful doing.

Is there a way to do this other than reinstall SQL Server?

Thanks,
-Ron
