Msg 28055, Level 15, State 5, Line 3 database mirroing in MSSQL 2005 SP2
I am setting up a database mirroring in SQL server 2005 SP2 .The issue is when I create endpoint on any of the servers, after creating the certificate I am getting the following error message
Msg 28055, Level 15, State 5, Line 3
The certificate 'xxx' is not valid for endpoint authentication. The certificate must have a private key encrypted with the database master key and current UTC date has to be between the certificate start date and the certificate expiration date.
What does this means ?
I have solved this by changing the system date to a day before when creating certificate after changing the date I create certificate and then I can create endpoints without this error .
Is there any mistake in my steps?

just reading this http://blogs.msdn.com/sqltips/archive/2005/07/28/Database_Mirroring.aspx hopefully it can help you
You need to ensure that all of the SQL Servers you are using for the mirroring configuration are synchronized in terms of time i.e., the system time is same. Otherwise, you will get into this situation which can result in a cert being considered as expired.
