SSL_read and SSL_write -- more exactly, the specific functions for the
various protocol versions -- know when they have to do a handshake
first. (Because of renegotiation, this can happen even after an
initial SSL_connect completed; if SSL_read and SSL_write were not able
to handle the handshake, it would be much more difficult to write
programs that behave correctly in case of a renegotiation request by
the peer.) So it is very unlikely that this has to do with the
authentication problem observed with your program.
Maybe you do SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file and SSL_CTX_use_certificate_file
after the SSL_new? Then the SSL structure will not contain the
certificate and key.
