i succesfully created a simple WEF setup between two domain server (WS2019) it's all working great while it remain in HTTP protocol.
Once i try to take the leap to HTTPS, no more logs is going to the WEC server.
i got certificates on both host issued by the same CA i followed multiple procedures i found online and redo stuff while i was tshooting.
i can't manage to get this work.
on the wec server, in the winRm logs i always get "the The authorization of the user failed with error 5"
and on the client :
The forwarder is having a problem communicating with subscription manager at address https://:5986/wsman/SubscriptionManager/WEC. Error code is 5 and Error Message is <f:WSManFault xmlns:f="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wbem/wsman/1/wsmanfault" Code="5" Machine="myclientFQDN"><f:Message>The WinRM client cannot process the request. The destination computer (:5986) returned an 'access denied' error. Specify one of the authentication mechanisms supported by the server. If Kerberos mechanism is used, verify that the client computer and the destination computer are joined to a domain. Possible authentication mechanisms reported by server: Negotiate Kerberos ClientCerts </f:Message></f:WSManFault>.
i drop this here since i ran out of ideas Thanks
