I didn't initialize it properly. Now I am looking at how to get my application accept openssl connections from a client with multiple curves instead of just "NID_X9_62_prime256v1". I appreciate any tips. ????? EC_KEY *ecdh = EC_KEY_new_by_curve_name (NID_X9_62_prime256v1); Thanks! Jordan.

I have an ssl based application that can accept SSL connections. I can establish SSL connections from a client using RSA?cipher ( eg AES128-SHA), but when I use the ephemeral EDHE ciphers (eg ECDHE-RSA-AES128-SHA), the SSL handshake fails.
