Hi,
I've built a dedicated SSL-server with SSLeay (not WWW server) and it
has run smoothly for it's purpose. Now, I was just fooling around and
did a 'stupid' test with connecting to the port with Netscape, and was
surprised at the result.
The server ran smoothly past the SSL_accept, altho Netscape complainted
that there are no common ciphers between the browser and the
server. That is natural, as I'm allowing only a special cipher. Of
course the server later failed in the next function, as Netscape was not
answering any more.
Now, I've only seen in the examples, that a check against -1 is used
for the return value of the SSL_accept. Is it possible that the return
value is 0? I have only tested against -1 so far.
For example, in the s2_srvr.c file the variable 'ret', which is used to
contain the return value for the ssl2_accept, is always checked
if (ret <= 0) goto end;
I haven't found documentation about this, what does it mean if the
return value then is 0?
Greetings,
abe
