WORKAROUND:

On the Notification Server, use the MMC to:

1. Export the Trusted Root Certification Autorities/Certificate Revocation List (CRL) from the local computer certificate store as a back up
2. Delete the CRL entry for the SMP Server from the local computer certificate store

On the Internet Gateway server: 

1. Delete all files under:

• C:\Program Files\Symantec\SMP Internet Gateway\Apache\certs\client
• C:\Program Files\Symantec\SMP Internet Gateway\Apache\certs\crl

2. Stop any hung OpenSSL.exe process using the Task Manager
3. Try to add the SMP Server again to the Internet Gateway.
