Yes, it is a hard disconnect, it doesn't even respond to the client hello, which is quite nasty. Could you try adding --disable-extensions to see if that works? Did this bug start to appear with more recent gnutls versions? Or have you always seen it with this server, regardless of gnutls version? /Simon -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
