Hi List.
Sorry for
this not being specifically OpenSSL related.
I successfully
installed SSL into my win32 Apache server (1.3.14 / 2.7.2 / 0.9.6) and it seemed
to be working properly. However, some client connections are timing out. The
problematic connections appear to have the following
characteristics (without having done a whole lot to confirm
this):
1. They're coming
from behind a corporate firewall w/ web proxy (I think it's an Apache proxy, but
I'm not sure. Could be a MS system.) The same transmission from a generic
ISP seems to work fine. The same transmission to a Unix-based Apache w/
mod_ssl works properly.
2. Timeouts
seem to only happen for HTTP POSTs that are on the lengthier side. Short
transmissions (e.g. 750 bytes) from the same system behind the same proxy work
reliably. Longer ones (e.g. 2k) usually, but not always, result in a timeout in
the browser.
I really haven't
done much digging yet to diagnose the problem, but if this kind of trouble rings
any bells for someone, I'd really appreciate the head-start.
Thanks,
Peter
