Apologies for the delay in replying...
Thank you for the help; SSL_connect() was indeed failing with a -1.
However, the test in the code was for failure with a 0 so I didn't
notice that until you pointed it out. That code has now been fixed.
I was unable to extract any useful information by using the
SSL_get_error(), but if you know of a good sample code that I could copy
I could try again.
Thanks
