The server is rejecting the connection because it doesn't like the SSL/TLS version range that wget is offering. Anything prior to TLSv1.1 suffers from vulnerabilities that can be exploited under practical conditions, so many servers reject older protocol versions.
You don't have to upgrade the OS to put a newer version of OpenSSL on, though you may have to build OpenSSL yourself. ________________________________ From: openssl-users <openssl-users-boun...@openssl.org> on behalf of Rob Marshall <rob.marshal...@gmail.com> Sent: Monday, April 16, 2018 2:27:17 PM To: openssl-users@openssl.org Subject: [openssl-users] What does this error mean? Hi, It may not be relevant, but I'm running SLES 10 SP3 which is a very old version of the OS and I can't upgrade it due to some installed products. When I try to do a wget I'm seeing the error: OpenSSL: error:1407742E:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:tlsv1 alert protocol version What does the error mean and how do I fix it?
