Hi, I have a problem connecting with a Netscape 4.5 browser to an Openssl server using ssl v.23. I get the following error on the browser: "Netscape has encountered bad data from the server". When I run the s_server from apps in the following way: openssl s_server -cert webcert.pem -debug -key webkey.pem -accept 443 -www in order to debug the problem, I get the same symptoms and the same error on the browser. Is there a known bug using Netscape version 4.5 ? If I enable only SSL 2 on the browser then everything works fine. Following the output debug information I get: Using default temp DH parameters ACCEPT read from 00CFCA00 [010E9A58] (11 bytes => 11 (0xB)) 0000 - 80 25 01 03 00 00 0c 00-00 00 10 .%......... read from 00CFCA00 [010E9A63] (28 bytes => 28 (0x1C)) 0000 - 02 00 80 04 00 80 00 00-03 00 00 06 7f a2 d0 52 ...............R 0010 - c9 2b 86 2c 5b a1 00 e9-93 cc 65 .+.,[.....e 001c - <SPACES/NULS> before ssl3_get_client_hello() after ssl3_get_client_hello() success before ssl3_send_server_hello() after ssl3_send_server_hello() success write to 00CFCA00 [00CD61F0] (79 bytes => 79 (0x4F)) 0000 - 16 03 00 00 4a 02 00 00-46 03 00 39 97 d1 e4 cd ....J...F..9.... 0010 - f4 57 d3 60 25 50 1c 74-64 7b e4 fe 86 cd 22 34 .W.`%P.td{...."4 0020 - 4a 79 fd 1b 02 9b 07 40-da 76 84 20 c2 db 76 97 Jy.....@.v. ..v. 0030 - ba c3 07 05 88 cb 84 6d-8f 72 f0 4b dd b5 2f f2 .......m.r.K../. 0040 - f1 f9 09 95 96 4c 84 e4-2a 42 9b f8 00 03 .....L..*B.... 004f - <SPACES/NULS> before ssl3_send_server_certificate() before ssl3_send_server_certificate() success write to 00CFCA00 [00CD61F0] (769 bytes => 769 (0x301)) 0000 - 16 03 00 02 fc 0b 00 02-f8 00 02 f5 00 02 f2 30 ...............0 0010 - 82 02 ee 30 82 02 57 a0-03 02 01 02 02 03 01 32 ...0..W........2 0020 - 8a 30 0d 06 09 2a 86 48-86 f7 0d 01 01 04 05 00 .0...*.H........ 0030 - 30 81 c4 31 0b 30 09 06-03 55 04 06 13 02 5a 41 0..1.0...U....ZA 0040 - 31 15 30 13 06 03 55 04-08 13 0c 57 65 73 74 65 1.0...U....Weste 0050 - 72 6e 20 43 61 70 65 31-12 30 10 06 03 55 04 07 rn Cape1.0...U.. 0060 - 13 09 43 61 70 65 20 54-6f 77 6e 31 1d 30 1b 06 ..Cape Town1.0.. 0070 - 03 55 04 0a 13 14 54 68-61 77 74 65 20 43 6f 6e .U....Thawte Con 0080 - 73 75 6c 74 69 6e 67 20-63 63 31 28 30 26 06 03 sulting cc1(0&.. 0090 - 55 04 0b 13 1f 43 65 72-74 69 66 69 63 61 74 69 U....Certificati 00a0 - 6f 6e 20 53 65 72 76 69-63 65 73 20 44 69 76 69 on Services Divi 00b0 - 73 69 6f 6e 31 19 30 17-06 03 55 04 03 13 10 54 sion1.0...U....T 00c0 - 68 61 77 74 65 20 53 65-72 76 65 72 20 43 41 31 hawte Server CA1 00d0 - 26 30 24 06 09 2a 86 48-86 f7 0d 01 09 01 16 17 &0$..*.H........ 00e0 - 73 65 72 76 65 72 2d 63-65 72 74 73 40 74 68 61 server-certs@tha 00f0 - 77 74 65 2e 63 6f 6d 30-1e 17 0d 30 30 30 37 31 wte.com0...00071 0100 - 39 31 32 31 35 35 31 5a-17 0d 30 31 30 38 30 32 9121551Z..010802 0110 - 31 32 31 35 35 31 5a 30-81 80 31 0b 30 09 06 03 121551Z0..1.0... 0120 - 55 04 06 13 02 49 4c 31-0f 30 0d 06 03 55 04 08 U....IL1.0...U.. 0130 - 13 06 49 73 72 61 65 6c-31 14 30 12 06 03 55 04 ..Israel1.0...U. 0140 - 07 13 0b 50 65 74 61 68-20 54 69 6b 76 61 31 1e ...Petah Tikva1. 0150 - 30 1c 06 03 55 04 0a 13-15 41 6c 67 6f 72 69 74 0...U....Algorit 0160 - 68 6d 69 63 20 52 65 73-65 61 72 63 68 20 31 14 hmic Research 1. 0170 - 30 12 06 03 55 04 0b 13-0b 50 72 69 76 61 74 65 0...U....Private 0180 - 57 69 72 65 31 14 30 12-06 03 55 04 03 13 0b 77 Wire1.0...U....w 0190 - 65 62 2e 61 72 78 2e 63-6f 6d 30 81 9f 30 0d 06 eb.arx.com0..0.. 01a0 - 09 2a 86 48 86 f7 0d 01-01 01 05 00 03 81 8d 00 .*.H............ 01b0 - 30 81 89 02 81 81 00 e7-bb 50 55 cf d6 10 28 4a 0........PU...(J 01c0 - 90 ed 30 34 2d ce e9 bc-2f 5e be 43 73 6f 1b 1c ..04-.../^.Cso.. 01d0 - 91 98 dc 9c b2 fe 3f 63-1a 5a c7 da 19 92 bc 85 ......?c.Z...... 01e0 - ec c7 ee a2 d9 85 7d bd-ff d8 f1 7f f6 5a 70 7e ......}......Zp~ 01f0 - 95 73 b3 36 1d 64 ca 92-71 dd 83 eb 50 16 a2 8f .s.6.d..q...P... 0200 - 7f 4d 13 3d fd b5 8f 14-1e d3 77 3c a7 f9 c7 94 .M.=......w<.... 0210 - ac 08 b7 42 f3 58 34 e6-fa a6 4a 41 33 1f a2 8a ...B.X4...JA3... 0220 - d7 27 89 4b c0 59 d5 5c-ac 4a a8 ad fc 72 c0 23 .'.K.Y.\.J...r.# 0230 - 79 2d 45 ec 00 53 e7 02-03 01 00 01 a3 30 30 2e y-E..S.......00. 0240 - 30 1e 06 03 55 1d 25 04-17 30 15 06 08 2b 06 01 0...U.%..0...+.. 0250 - 05 05 07 03 01 06 09 60-86 48 01 86 f8 42 04 01 .......`.H...B.. 0260 - 30 0c 06 03 55 1d 13 01-01 ff 04 02 30 00 30 0d 0...U.......0.0. 0270 - 06 09 2a 86 48 86 f7 0d-01 01 04 05 00 03 81 81 ..*.H........... 0280 - 00 bc 4a 9d 31 26 fb 82-9d 13 26 b2 03 21 a8 f0 ..J.1&....&..!.. 0290 - 77 f1 bc 0a 73 41 f2 95-80 44 e5 14 36 47 ab 0b w...sA...D..6G.. 02a0 - 32 57 b2 fb 36 e0 69 7a-72 01 c3 a2 e1 75 56 39 2W..6.izr....uV9 02b0 - 07 a3 36 ce 68 60 27 f7-1c dd d4 6f e5 c9 18 5b ..6.h`'....o...[ 02c0 - 23 7d 05 d1 cf 37 57 b0-27 6e 0a 4d 95 6d ea 46 #}...7W.'n.M.m.F 02d0 - c7 19 a4 7a 42 a9 bb 8f-d2 28 9c 4a eb f3 23 c1 ...zB....(.J..#. 02e0 - 26 32 12 f7 ef f1 f9 28-58 c2 19 2a f2 d4 62 19 &2.....(X..*..b. 02f0 - c9 74 14 17 be 8c df 8a-61 0f 60 15 34 d1 d5 67 .t......a.`.4..g 0300 - e3 . before ssl3_send_server_done() after ssl3_send_server_done() success write to 00CFCA00 [00CD61F0] (9 bytes => 9 (0x9)) 0000 - 16 03 00 00 04 0e ...... 0009 - <SPACES/NULS> before ssl3_check_client_hello() read from 00CFCA00 [010E9A58] (5 bytes => 5 (0x5)) 0000 - 15 03 00 00 02 ..... read from 00CFCA00 [010E9A5D] (2 bytes => 2 (0x2)) 0000 - 01 . 0002 - <SPACES/NULS> ERROR !!!
