Thanx for the generic information... My client server program works in a 
non-secured environment. If a ssl-client tries to connect, connection is 
accepted for a secured server. But if a non-ssl client connects, the access 
permissions client has will be limited. But both has to connect to the same 
port number because of design criteria.
Only way I can figure out that this is a non-ssl client is by initiating a 
server handshake. But SSL_Accept function waits till the client initiates a 
handshake and the program hangs right there..

Have you ever come across this scenario.
