 Additional Information:
 The development was over HTTP URL, and so I don't have this problem. Now 
 we install the software and we know that over HTTPS ws can't run.
 
 Thanks you very much.
 I'm sorry, my english is very bad :(.

+From a quick look at the certificate it looks like Mono, like Lynx,
+doesn't like the extra informations in the subject name (I must look
+into the HTTPS RFC to be sure about the right behaviour).
+
+If you need a rapid fix then I suggest you read about
+ICertificatePolicy and implement one that will disregard this specific
+error (for your service) in your client code. This won't affect your
+code portability, will quickly "solve" your problem and, anyway, is a
+good thing to have to properly diagnose errors and report them back to
+the end-users.
