[users@httpd] SSL library error 336151570 in handshake w/ confirmed cert (CN=ServerName, valid, etc)

Hey list,

I've been struggling with this error for weeks now, and still havent
even got close to a solution. I have the following setup

Server
Linux gdshu2.XXX 2.6.18-92.el5 #1 SMP Tue Apr 29 13:16:12 EDT 2008 i686
i686 i386 GNU/Linux
/usr/local/apache2/bin/httpd -v
Server version: Apache/2.0.63
Server built:   Feb 18 2009 12:21:06

Log level is set to debug.

Server cert
openssl verify /usr/local/apache2/certs/server.crt
/usr/local/apache2/certs/server.crt:
/C=HU/ST=Budapest/L=Budapest/O=XXX/OU=GPS
UNIX/CN=gdshu2.XXX/emailAddress=XXX

(XXX is where I've applied some censorship :-)

Clients
A: - desktop, firefox
B: - desktop, internet explorer
C: - an enterprise service bus client

A complains about how the cert is not signed by a trusted CA. That's ok.
I add an exception on the client. This is what I see on the apache error
log

B complains about the same, halts the connection with a dialog box. (I
think handshake goes well here) debug on server side is

C fails miserably at handshake, and this is my problem. Debug log says

Now, you would assume I have different CN on the cert and ServerName in
Apache. I don't ! Besides checking the cert and the config files
manually, Apache never complains about this at startup

My question is: how is this error invoked when my server cert is valid?
[Wed Feb 18 15:03:36 2009] [info] SSL Library Error: 336151570
error:14094412:SSL routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:sslv3 alert bad certificate
Subject CN in certificate not server name or identical to CA!?

Also, SSLVerifyCertificate is not enabled (it is not in any of the
loaded config files and it client certificate verification is disabled
by default, right?)

Thanks much & regards,
Andrew

I'm not terribly familiar with mod_ssl, but tou might look at a
wireshark trace and see if this Alert is actually being transmitted
over the wire by the client.

It looks like it happens early enough that it would be unencrypted.

I'd suggest getting this to work with openssl s_client first.
cheers,
