A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
Title : Clientside interoperability experiences for
the SSL and TLS protocols
Author(s) : Y. Pettersen
Filename : draft-pettersen-tls-interop-experience-00.txt
Pages : 27
Date : 2006-6-21
This document presents a number of problems encountered when
implementing TLS 1.0, TLS 1.0 and TLS Extensions for clients, and
their consequences. The problems include servers that refuse to
connect with clients supporting newer versions of the protocol, or
does not handle such negotiation properly. Other problems
encountered are incorrect use of values in the protocol messages.
The consequences of these problems range from delayed introduction of
new protocol versions and features, to fallback mechanisms that may
disable protocol security features, to implementations that cannot
interoperate with some other implementations.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
