thank you Chris. I know the server (APR) is sending SSLv2 ClientHello because
ssl debugs show it:


     // from ${CATALINA_HOME}/bin/setenv.sh:
     export JAVA_OPTS="... -Djavax.net.debug=ssl"
     //...

   # sh ${CATALINA_HOME}/bin/startup.sh

   // from client
    $ openssl s_client -connect server.xxx.net:443 -debug -ssl3

   // from ${CATALINA_HOME}/logs/catalina.out
   ...
   sending SSLv2 ClientHello       <<----   server issues only SSLv2
ClientHello


But same openssl version (FIPS) connects with SSLv3 on another machien.
so I am thinking there is openssl misconfig on this server.

many tahnks.
