I have mixed success in accessing https://sbs.mcom.com/products/Security/cms/6.0/CMS_6-PRD.html and https://sbs.mcom.com/products/Security/ehsca.html. When the browser is in a bad mood, I'm not prompt to present certificate, instead I see the following page: "Forbidden Your client is not allowed to access the requested object." I'm on 2001-10-22-18-0.9.4 I never ever had any problems accessing this page with 4.78.
Does this have anything to do with how long it takes you to enter you password, or selecting the cert? We had an issue with the server dropping the connection after a while.

I don't even have a chance to enter password.
Ok, next time your browser is in a bad mood, come and get me.
->ddrinan Here's what I found while working with Andrew, is that if one is not logged on the software security token, one doesn't get prompted for the password. Cert selection pref is set to ask everytime. Cert is stored in the software token. To reproduce: Start the browser so that the Master pwd is not requested. Visit any of the URL listed by the reporter. You'll get an authentication failure. Note this was with the Andrew's installation. If we start the browser, then go to the device manager and log in to the software token, we can access the site without any problems. QA wanted on trunk builds.

Note: I'm unable to reproduce after I create a new profile, then follow the procedure described using the 6.2 build: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:0.9.4) Gecko/20011019 Netscape6/6.2 Andrew. Can you try with your build on a fresh profile?
