Hey all,
I have a curious problem that I seem unable to find precedence for.
The Error:
--- on the client side ---
svn up
svn: OPTIONS of 'https:///svn/': SSL
handshake failed: SSL alert received: Decode error (https://)
--- on the server side from apache error.log ---
[debug] ssl_engine_kerne

Try using that cert on one of the machines with the 0.9.8g openSSL to
verify if it is that cert. You'll have to make sure you have both the
private and public key to do the authentica
