Hi, As an addendum to my other thread on closing SSL connections safely in an HTTP environment, most of my testing there was done between my own client and server. Now I start testing with IIS, and the IIS server looks like it closes the SSL connection "illegally", as my client gets SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL instead of SSL_ERROR_ZERO_RETURN, ERR_get_error() returns 0, and the SSL_read returned 0. According to the manual this is a protocol violation. Does anybody have experience of this, and how to work around it?
