Just so the list is informed too. 
 
The webserver that was being tested used *only* TLS 1.2 and currently Servers 
Alive does NOT support TLS 1.2, that's why it fails. 
Servers Alive's HTTPS checking is based on a shrinkwrapped component (meaning 
it was not dev for us, but is generaly available) and this components uses 
OpenSSL 0.9.8zf for the SSL part.  OpenSSL 0.9.8zf does not support TLS 1.2 
either 
Support for TLS 1.2 was added to OpenSSL 1.0.1/2. 
 
OpenSSL 1.0.1 and 1.0.2 is much slower then 0.9.8 and is not just (from a dev 
point of view) a simple "replacement".  I talked to the developper of the 
component we're using and he knows that at some point he will have to update to 
a more recent version of OpenSSL (1.0.1/2/3/...), but for the moment due to the 
"speed" problems there is no real timeframe/date for it. 
 
 
IF (and clearly IF) there are a lot of requests for TLS 1.2 checks (https 
checks I mean) then we *could* make a hack on Servers Alive, were we force 
specificly the use of a different component (less flexible when it comes to 
support) just for TLS1.2.  However our preference would be to continue to use 
the current component and "wait" until it's updated with TLS 1.2 support. 
 
 
The problem mentioned by Jason was "solved" by changing some settings on the 
webserver, and make it work with something else then TLS1.2.

Onderwerp: [SA-list] PRTG ssl handshake

WE are monitoring a PRTG installation.  I do this by checking the machine the 
service and the web interface.   A few upgrades ago the ssl web page check 
broke.  I am certain it was in response to one of the OpenSSL bugs.   Now I get 
Thursday, April 16, 2015 9:15:15 AM URL check (https://prtg.domain.com) :SSL 
handshake failed:  (0-) (301) 


Any thoughts or a way to resolve so I can monitor this page again?  Thanks.
