Some .gov sites blocked, others are not?

I'm a novice with this, but I have web filters enabled and still having trouble reaching a few government sites, for example www.pittsburghca.gov. But others, like [link]https://www.dmv.ca.gov[/link] work fine. I've explicitly allowed the blocked sites and still same error:

 

This Connection is Invalid. SSL certificate expired.

A secure connection to www.pittsburgca.gov cannot be established.

When you try to connect securely, sites will present trusted identification to prove that you are going to the right place. However, this site's identity can't be verified.

What am I missing? And remember, I'm a real novice with the Fortinet equipment (new job, this is what they had in place) so explain to me like I'm a 5 year old. It's a Fortigate 100E with firmware v7.0.1 build0157 (GA). Thanks!

OK, so I'm a GUI person.

If you are a GUI person, here is the solution.

Security Profiles -> DNS Filter -> Select the filter you want and click the "Edit" button

Under "Domain Filter" click "Create New"

In the resulting dialog box, fill in the Domain with: identrust.com

Click "OK"

(You just created a filter to block identrust.com)

There is still junk in the cache, so it won't work until you clear the cache.

But you're a GUI person, and that's complicated. So reboot.

Upper right corner -> Admin -> System -> Reboot

You are done.

Toshi Esumi, thank you for your help!

Yesterday's 7.0.3 release didn't include the fix went into 6.2.10. So I guess it needs to wait until 7.0.4.
