when trying to connect I always get a

Sometimes a clent will say that when it attempts an SSL connection and gets
back something that's not an SSL response.

The cleent mistakes that for an incomplete attempt to handshake.

My first guess would be that your doohickey ain't running SSL.

Try openssl s_client -connect *your_host:your_port* and see what openssl
sez.

The openssl program is on most Linux boxes and on Windows if you have
Cygwin installed.
