Netscape Communications Corporation introduced SSL 2.0 with the launch of Netscape Navigator 1.0 in 1994. Netscape Navigator 2.0 included support for SSL 3.0 when it was released in 1996. The specification for TLS 1.0, essentially a standardized version of SSL 3.0 with some differences, was published in 1999.

We're still running with the HMC 1.8.2 -- the one that came with our z800. (Yeah, yeah. I know. We're looking at upgrading soon...)

We discovered (the "hard" way) that the secure sockets support on our HMC is SSL 2.0! This is a problem for us because the new Firefox 2.0 release no longer supports this obsolete protocol!

Does anyone know if it's possible to make this HMC speak either SSL 3.0 or TLS? The "Console Features" dialog gives me the option of enabling, disabling, or requiring secure transmission. But, no option for choosing which protocol to use. Could there be another setting?
