I solved the problem by generating the client certificate using the CA included in Windows 2003 Server, marked the private key as exportable and then installed the key and the Certificate in my Mac. So the problem was with the clients certificate not being generated with the correct requirements for TLS (the certificate I used first, was generated using OpenSSl, it should have worked if I knew how to generate the correct certificate).

I still think that Microsoft should update the meaning of all the codes that the IAS Server generates in the relevant Log Files, otherwise troubleshotting becomes more difficult and based on guessing.
