I have an in-house HTTP/S server using OpenSSL. The environment is: OpenSSL 0.9.5a HP-UX 11.00 (64 bit) HP ANSI C compiler. When I try to connect using M$ Internet Explorer 5.0, SSL_accept fails with ret==0 and SSL_get_error() returning SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL. This is supposed to happen only when the connection is closed by the client at an invalid point. ERR_print_errors() does not produce any messages. Explorer displays a stupid HTML page, at the bottom of which is "could not find server or DNS error". The result is the same with explorer 5.01, also using export/strong encryption does not matter. I have tried to play around with the "advanced" settings too, the result is the same. If I use Netscape Communicator (on Linux or Windows), everything works fine. If I run the server on Solaris 2.6 (32 bit), also with OpenSSL 0.9.5a, it works with both Netscape and Explorer. Any clues? E.g. how do the uses of SSL in Netscape and Explorer differ? -- Karsten Spang Senior Software Developer, Ph.D. Belle Systems A/S Tel.: +45 59 44 25 00 Fax.: +45 59 44 25 88 E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web: http://www.bellesystems.com/ Defining the Future of IP Services ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
