So as the packetdump contains enough info for me to connect to the server directly I figured to try a test via openssl. Now I might be overlooking something as I do not look at packet dumps often. The server proposes TLSv1.0 which is not an issue for Windows XP and the handshake itself appears to complete OK. Not seeing anything very wrong in the TLS handshake itself. Upgrade Windows XP to Vista.Īs always make a backup of your virtual machine before trying something like this so that you have a good copy to start from if something fails. If there's a problem getting it installed you can try the same for the installer. In that case, right click the application icon in the start menu, select properties, then on the 'Compatibility' tab set the compatibility level to Windows XP. Most software works ok, once you run it via the compatibility modes that Vista (and higher) offer. If that still does not help then I'm afraid getting the software to work on Vista (or higher) is your best bet.Īs long as there are no hardware drivers involved that usually is do-able. There's plenty of antivirus products that meddle with https connections and they could break this easily, so while I'm not in favor of getting rid of antivirus on Windows XP guests, it could be a worthwhile troubleshooting step (uninstall not just disable to make sure) But of course I don't know how the https connection is setup. If your Windows XP is up to date then that -in theory- should still work.

Is Your Organization Using SHA-1 SSL Certificates? | Security content from Windows IT Proĭown there you can read that Windows XP SP3 has support up to SHA-2.

Without more information (I would need to see the actual https connection to be sure) it sounds like the global depreciation on SHA-1 for certificates is your problem. No installing Firefox or Google Chrome will not help for that, at all. Ouch, then I'm afraid I do not have good news.
