We are unable to connect noVnc web socket secure using a developers mac computer to the new certificate after certify the webs DST Root CA X3; it was working prior to the Expired DST. It shows it is using the proper certificate but the connection does not work. Any ideas? We need a server side solution if at all possible.

We generated the cert using the certify the web desktop application. We then export .pfx from IIS and use SSL Converter to convert pkcs#12 to PEM. The .key and .crt files are then used for wss connection to NoVNC webviewer. This method works on MacOSMojave(an older dev machine) but is not working on BigSur latest release.

Are you getting any errors? I'd primarily check the browser console on
the BigSur machine.

There should be more than that. Have you checked that there aren't any
filters active for the console? I think it hides things by default.

Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
