Package: openssl

 

There is a bug in OpenSSL 1.0.1 where it can't connect to some servers
when the network's MTU is below 1500.  Details here:

 

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13596019/openssl-1-0-1-handshake-work
around-in-ubuntu

 

Partial fix:

 

sudo ifconfig eth0 mtu 1496

 

The issue seems to be caused by something with TLS hanging with
fragmented packets.  Our network's MTU is 1496 instead of 1500.  The
server would wait after the client sent the initial client hello
message.  I tried everything from upgrading to 1.0.1-4ubuntu5.5 to
passing CAfile and -cipher with no luck.  I am using Ubuntu 12.0.4 linux
3.2.0-24-generic.

Just read the report and I agree here with Kurt.
Closing since there is nothing openssl can do here.
