Just minor nitpicking to get the facts right: A client does never respect the used cipher order of the server. A client offers a number of ciphers and the server chooses one of those, either based on its own order (preferred) or based on the client-preferred order. If you know other programs doing it better, research how they do it and propose a change to PHP please. Regards, Niklas
