The server forks out a thread and i am passing a pointer to the ssl object as a
parameter to the thread which closes it just before exit. Like this
Servermain()
{
CreateThread( SSL* ssl ); //user defined function
}
MyThread( void* p )
{
SSL *ssl = (SSL*)p;
//
//do something
//
If(ssl)
SSL_free(ssl);
Return ;
}
Is this OK? And also is there any sequence that should be followed for these
cleanup routines.

It looks like you did not do an SSL_free when the connection was shut down.
