It looks to me like "550 T" is the start of the FTP message type 550, Requested 
action not taken.
Doesn't seem like something the server should be sending in the middle of a 
CLIENT-HELLO negotiation.  But I'm no expert.

Is it safe to assume that non-z/OS clients are successfully connecting to this 
server?

Well in the data you sent out on the client hello I only see two x'35', on is 
at byte 3,which is part of the length field.  The other is at 2C which really 
starts at 2B which is cipher x'0035'

In your 1st post the trace showed part of a error message that I think you were 
receiving which as "550 T".  Were you receiving that message and if so what was 
the full message.

You know it just hit me that "5" in HEX (ASCII) is x'35'.  Maybe the client is 
sending the error message that starts "550 T" and your side it interpreting 
that error message as part of the TLS negotiation and it has no idea what a 
x'35' is.
