Hello! I have a problem enabling inter-node encryption in cassandra 3.0.9
After I set my conf like that: server_encryption_options: internode_encryption: all keystore: /etc/certs/node1.keystore keystore_password: cassandra truststore: /etc/certs/node1.truststore truststore_password: cassandra # More advanced defaults below: protocol: *TLSv1* # algorithm: SunX509 # store_type: JKS cipher_suites: [*TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA*] # require_client_auth: false I got this error all the time ERROR [ACCEPT-/node1] 2018-01-31 11:29:20,358 MessagingService.java:1081 - SSL handshake error for inbound connection from a8265dd[SSL_NULL_WITH_NULL_NULL: Socket[addr=/node2,port=40352,localport=7001]] javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: Remote host closed connection during handshake at sun.security.ssl.SSLSocketImpl.readRecord(SSLSocketImpl.java:992) ~[na:1.8.0_92] at sun.security.ssl.SSLSocketImpl.performInitialHandshake(SSLSocketImpl.java:1375) ~[na:1.8.0_92] at sun.security.ssl.SSLSocketImpl.readDataRecord(SSLSocketImpl.java:928) ~[na:1.8.0_92] at sun.security.ssl.AppInputStream.read(AppInputStream.java:105) ~[na:1.8.0_92] at sun.security.ssl.AppInputStream.read(AppInputStream.java:71) ~[na:1.8.0_92] at java.io.DataInputStream.readInt(DataInputStream.java:387) ~[na:1.8.0_92] at org.apache.cassandra.net.MessagingService$SocketThread.run(MessagingService.java:1055) ~[apache-cassandra-3.0.9.jar:3.0.9] Caused by: java.io.EOFException: SSL peer shut down incorrectly at sun.security.ssl.InputRecord.read(InputRecord.java:505) ~[na:1.8.0_92] at sun.security.ssl.SSLSocketImpl.readRecord(SSLSocketImpl.java:973) ~[na:1.8.0_92] ... 6 common frames omitted I think I tested the correctness of my certs using the command openssl s_client ( or at least I think I did) user@node1 /home/user $ openssl s_client -connect node2:7001 -tls1 CONNECTED(00000003) ... SSL-Session: Protocol : *TLSv1* Cipher : *ECDHE-RSA-AES256-SHA* ... So it seems I am using the right configuration but still having the 'SSL peer shut down incorrectly' error.
