monit: Unknown SSL version!

[Marcus Mülbüsch]

Hello,

   I tried to test out mmonit. Everything works fine so far; however I 
cannot get ozr external server to register in mmonit.

   After punching the holes in the external and internal firewalls I 
can access the mmonit server just fine: Trying out to connect with links 
results in "Method: GET not allowed for this URL" in links and a 
corresponding entry in the "localhost_access.log"; plus I can trace the 
packets through the firewalls just fine.

   However, an "monit validate" on the external server results in

> monit: Unknown SSL version!
> M/Monit: cannot open a connection to https://xxx.yyy.zzz.aaa:10444/collector -- 
> Operation now in progress
> M/Monit: no server available

   First I thought it was a problem with using a newer SSL-Version on 
the mmonit-Server, but downgrading to openssl-0.9.8k did not help.

   This is completely new to me, I did not have any problems with 
different distributions or openssl versions so far.

   mmonit runs on a Gentoo VServer Guest, with kernel 
2.6.35-vs2.3.0.36.32-gentoo with baselayout-2.1, openrc-0.9.8.4 and 
openssl-1.0.1c.

  The external server runs Ubuntu 10.04.4 LT with kernel 
2.6.32-45-server and "OpenSSL 0.9.8k 25 Mar 2009".

   Any pointers?

Thank you,
