You probably need to tell wireshark to decode as SSL, because that's a non-standard port. Under the "Analyze" menu, there will be a "Decode as". You can use that to tell wireshark to use a particular decoder for a particular stream.
Select a packet in the flow you want to analyse. Select "Decode as", then choose the appropriate options. You probably want to select "server port", and then select SSL. Apply it and you should be good to go. Tom Ram G wrote: > Installed Wireshark - still no luck. I have a simple ssl server on one > windows box and an ssl client on the windows box running wireshark.
