David,

Sorry for the lack of information, let me try to fill in the blanks.

We're using Perl (IO::Socket::SSL) on the sending side to establish a secure
socket to a C agent on the receiving side.   The C agent uses native OpenSSL
APIs.    On the Perl side, we create a TCP socket and then do a startSSL
afterwards.   The same exact code works fine with Perl running on Windows
going to a C agent on Windows.   If fails when Perl is running on Solaris
going to the same C agent on Windows.   This same Perl SSL code on Solaris
works fine going to a Java server on Solaris.

        # Start the SSL handshake
        if (defined($self->{'_sslconf'})) {
                $self->{'_Socket'} = BfSSLSocket::startSSL($self->{'_Socket'},
$AddrIsIpv6, $self->{'_sslconf'}) if ($self->{'_Socket'});
        }

The above startSSL method basically comes down to this, which works on
Windows.

                print "SSL connection to agent.\n";

                $sock = IO::Socket::SSL->start_SSL($sock,
                        'SSL_version'        => $ssl_ver,
                        'SSL_cipher_list'    => $ssl_cipher_list,
                        'SSL_verify_mode'    => hex $ssl_verify_mode,
                        'SSL_use_cert'       => $use_cert,
                        'SSL_key_file'       => $key_location,
                        'SSL_passwd_cb'      => sub{return $key_pass},
                        'SSL_cert_file'      => $cert_location,
                        'SSL_ca_file'        => $ca_location,
                        'SSL_startHandshake' => 0

                        ) || die "Encountered an SSL handshake problem:
".IO::Socket::SSL::errstr();
                
                $sock->connect_SSL;


On the Agent side, there's a dispatch process which receives requests and
spawns a new Agent when it gets the connection.  It hands the socket over to
the new Agent process which then starts SSL.

Once the SSL handshake is successful, it goes into the main loop which
starts read/writes.

        } else if (NULL != start_SSL() || SS_OK == ssl_state) {
                          agent_main_loop();
                stop_SSL();
        }

However, what comes across here is encrypted data instead.

Looks like I'm missing all this debug statements from the failing trace.. 
This is taken from a successful trace on Windows.   Note the "dont start
handshake, then ssl handshake done after

Hmm..  It appears that this call to IO::Socket::SSL is bombing out somewhere
as it's not starting the handshake at all.   The "connect_SSL" should begin
that as shown above.   

                $sock = IO::Socket::SSL->start_SSL($sock,
                        'SSL_version'        => $ssl_ver,
                        'SSL_cipher_list'    => $ssl_cipher_list,
                        'SSL_verify_mode'    => hex $ssl_verify_mode,
                        'SSL_use_cert'       => $use_cert,
                        'SSL_key_file'       => $key_location,
                        'SSL_passwd_cb'      => sub{return $key_pass},
                        'SSL_cert_file'      => $cert_location,
                        'SSL_ca_file'        => $ca_location,
                        'SSL_startHandshake' => 0

                        ) || die "Encountered an SSL handshake problem:
".IO::Socket::SSL::errstr();
                
                $sock->connect_SSL;

In the failing state, there's no debug output, although there should be as I
have debug enabled there the same way via eval "use IO::Socket::SSL
qw($debug $inetValue)";.   Here's the failing trace again.

Making as SSL connection using socket IO::Socket::INET=GLOB(0x29bd6a0).

Socket is of type: ref(IO::Socket::SSL=GLOB(0x29bd6a0))
READ:

Agent Connecting...
READ:^V^C^AJ^BF^C^AI^Q╣

In fact, I can see on the same system when it connects successfully to Java,
that the debug prints out for the same code (although I do a
'SSL_startHandshake' => 1 in that case as Java is ready to accept SSL
immediately where as the Agent is not due to the dispatch process).

Any ideas?    I will try changing 'SSL_startHandshake' => 1, w/o the
$sock->connect_SSL, but that didn't work from Windows -> Windows in this
environment.  It just seems like even the general start_SSL code is not
getting invoked although it's definately going through that path.

Pete
