steps that worked for me:

  • pull working Windows configs by CTRL+RightMouse on Skype tray icon > Configuration Information
  • based on educated guess i took the 'DG URL Internal/External' https: urls and plugged them into skype's [advanced options] page
  • also on windows, i also exported the certificate from the browser for the above server and imported it into mac's keychain
    • i exported the .p7b format INCLUDING the parent certificate chain
    • i imported as 'system' level
    • and made sure to TRUST it after it was imported (in mac KeyChain Access app, search by server name, right mouse on the entry > get info > trust)
