I couldn't figure way to have my SSLclient retrieve information from IIS 5.0 using 128-bit encryption. The following is the core part of HTTPS client code: RAND_seed(rnd_seed, sizeof(rnd_seed)); SSLeay_add_ssl_algorithms(); meth = SSLv23_client_method(); SSL_load_error_strings(); ctx = SSL_CTX_new (meth); ssl = SSL_new (ctx); SSL_set_fd (ssl, socket); state = SSL_connect (ssl); server_cert = SSL_get_peer_certificate (ssl); X509_free (server_cert); sprintf(headerBuffer, "GET /index.html HTTP/1.0\nHost: 172.22.33.119\n\n"); SSL_write (ssl, headerBuffer, strlen(headerBuffer)); do { state = SSL_read (ssl, buffer, 1024); printf("%s\n", buffer); } while (state > 0); However, IIS returns the following 403.5 error message: "... The page must be viewed with a high-security Web browser The page you are trying to view requires the use of a Web browser configured for 128-bit encryption. HTTP 403.5 - Forbidden: SSL 128 required Internet Information Services ..." Is there a way to deal with IIS(w/ 128-bit encryption) in OPENSSL?
