Yes, that's OK. It's not what the OP posted.

Dave's original email message said "SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 | SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2". Note 
that is "v2" twice, and no "v3". (He's already noted this was a typo in the 
note, and his code is correct.)

I pointed out the error in the message, and asked if the actual code was 
correct.

You seem to be talking about what the code *should* be, which is not in dispute.
