Hello,

We have application servers, written in C, which can be configured to do
SSL or not. In any case they send out a goodmorning message, ciphered
with SSL or in clear text if they run configured in clear text.

What would be the best method for a C-written client to figure out if
the server does or not does SSL after  connecting the socket?
Ofc the client could try any method and if it does not fit, drop the
connection and do an new one. 

But I hope that there are better options. Thanks

        matthias
