Re: Support for SSL V2

Thank you for the answer,
but did my firewall (not exactly a server) respond or did it accept the
connection ?
This can make the difference ...
Whay is the meaning of the last lines in the command output:

* Empty reply from server
* Connection #0 to host xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx left intact
curl: (52) Empty reply from server
* Closing connection #0

"curl:(52)" appears to be an error code corresponding to "the server didn't
reply anything, which here i sconsidered an error" in the man page.

I made some more test trying a connection to the firewall with Internet
Explorer: when "SSL V2 only" is setted in the advanced options I cannot
connect, on the contrary connection succeed when selecting "SSL V3 only".

Regards

It looks like your server responded fine when curl tried to connect to it
using SSLv2.
