Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Documentation Group: Python 2.4 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: adam goucher (adamg-work) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: socket.ssl should explain that it is a 2/3 connection Initial Comment: When you try to connect via socket.ssl(), python attempts a ssl2 connection then negotiates up. On some servers however ssl2 is disabled making the connection fail. The documentation should mention this limitation. If you want to connect to an ssl3 or tls1 only server, you need to modify the ssl context this method uses. I submitted a patch (889813) some time ago to allow the context to be specified as an optional argument. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Facundo Batista (facundobatista) Date: 2007-03-30 22:23 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=752496 Originator: NO Please, could you came up with a text that I could use to fix the docs?
