Hi Folks,

Resin does not support "SSLHonorCipherOrder" yet.  We already received a 
request from another customer and there is a feature request for this here:

http://bugs.caucho.com/view.php?id=5282

This is an OpenSSL feature, not JSSE.  We'll be implementing it in an upcoming 
release.  Probably it will be in 4.0.44, as .43 is due for release soon.

Thanks,
Paul
