Weird federation issue

Question
-
I have just finish setting a full deployment of OCS R2 environnement.
Everything works great.
We have federated with Microsoft and it also works great.
Now, my problem is that I am unable to federate with any other OCS organization...beside Microsoft.
The weird thing, is that the other OCS company are also federated with Microsoft....so federation works...but not within each other.
To recap:
Company A : OCS R2
Company B :OCS R2
Company C: OCS
A and B are federated
B and C are federated
But A and C are not able to federate??
Both A and C are Open for federation and are using Public Certificate.
Thanks for any light on this one.

Problem solved.
I asked company C to update their Root TRusted Autorities.

Entrust has changed their Root Authority.

My guess would be certificate issues
A or C EDGE may not have correct root Certs installed
You can run a debug session when adding a federated contact

Thanks for your reply
Could be a cert issue, but here is a snip of a debug session.
Company A = cnww.com is using UC Entrust Public Certificate
Company C = Alphamosaik.com is using UC Digicert Public Certificate
