Hello,

I compiled apache2 from pkgsrc.  I've created a certificate using the
following procedure:

# openssl genrsa -out /usr/local/etc/httpd/ssl.key/server.key 1024

# openssl req -new -key  /usr/local/etc/httpd/ssl.key/server.key -out
/usr/local/etc/httpd/private/server.csr

# openssl x509 -req -days 3650 -in
/usr/local/etc/httpd/private/server.csr -signkey
/usr/local/etc/httpd/ssl.key/server.key -out
/usr/local/etc/httpd/ssl.crt/server.crt


I've put these into ssl.conf, along with the <VirtualHost
_default_:443> stuff.  When I try to access the webserver via https,
Firefox gives me the following message:

"The connection to www.myserver.com has terminated unexpectedly. Some
data may have been transferred"

Of course, "www.myserver.com" is just an example, it actually states
my real server name in the error.  When I checked in access_log, I see
the following stuff:

hark - - [12/Jan/2005:04:07:58 -0600] "\x80g\x01\x03\x01" 501 373
hark - - [12/Jan/2005:04:07:58 -0600] "\x80g\x01\x03" 501 372

I keep getting these weird entries whenever I try to access via https.
 Does anyone know what the problem could be?  Is something getting
mangled up?  None of my other NetBSD 2.0 boxes are doing this.

Thanks
