That is correct, a wildcard-cert for *.ourcompany.com.au does not cover view.stuff.ourcompany.com.au.
You need a wildcard cert that looks like: *.stuff.ourcompany.com.au.
I don't think this is specfic for View, its just how wildcard-certs work.
But that should not cause the error you see...
Have you set the "Friendly name" to VDM?
Is the private key exportable?
