FileMaker 9 Client on Mac OSX cannot connect to FileMaker Server hosted Data Bases

If you come across the problem of a Filemaker Pro 9 client on Mac OSX not being able to connect to a FileMaker server, it is probable that you need to update the client.  The update solves the issue with the SSL (Secure Socket Layering) certificate for FileMaker Pro Clients installed after Sept 22, 2008.  

SSL is enabled in FileMaker Server to only allow SSL encrypted FileMaker Pro clients to access hosted FileMaker databases for security.  This is especially important when accessing FileMaker Server hosted FileMaker files through ports or pinholes on routers.
