SSP Search settings – Authentication failed because the remote party has closed the transport stream

By peter.stilgoe









When clicking ‘Search Settings’ within your shared services provider you get the following error:

“Authentication failed because the remote party has closed the transport stream”

This appears to be caused by the SSL certificate, you can fix it by creating a new SSL cert using the IIS 6 resource kit & using SelfSSL

IIS6 resource kit

Command to run: Selfssl /s:(IIS ID of the Office Server Web Services site) /v:(length of validity for the certificate in days – I opted for 5000)

This then replaced the existing certificate with the newly created SelfSSL certificate and Search Settings now worked.

There is also a MOSS KB Article here: Authentication failed because the remote party has closed the transport stream
