When I do this with my troubled server, I'm getting:
SSL_Accept failed
error:1407609B:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_CLIENT_HELLO:http request
and it happens every time.
Connecting via a browser gives:
SSL_Accept failed
error:14094412:SSL routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:sslv3 alert bad certificate
and Netscape sez "The servers' certificate has an invalid signature. You
will not be able to connect to this site securely"
Does this tell anyone anything?
