Hi,
   This is a more concise version of my earlier posts on the same
matter.
When my app comes up I create a pool of SSL structures (using
SSL_new)that I 
intend to reuse for the connections as follows:
SSL_clear(ssl);
SSL_set_accept_state(ssl);
SSL_set_fd(ssl,client);
I do this before accepting every client connection.

The problem appears when I follow below steps:
1. Open browser and establish connection with my app. I can browse
   others links over SSL as well.(fine)
2. Close browser.
3. Open browser again and establish connection with my app.
   My app fails saying "Error in get client hello B".
This also happens when I cancel the certificate message that the
broswers show.
The problem happens with both IE(5) and Netscape(4.7).
Using 0.9.4 SSL_read used to return with SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ.
Using 0.9.5a SSL_read returns ERROR_SSL (Navigator 4.7).

The problem disappers when I do a SSL_new for every connection.

What might I be doing wrong here? I believe that the SSL state machine
is not getting
reset properly. What can I do to fix this? I want to avoid SSL_new
everytime as I wish to 
avoid fragmentation.

Would appreciate any help,
Thanks,
Amit.
