You've obviously spent more time than I with the problem, but I'ves the samr
problem. I also first tried SSLeay-0.8.0, that one worked, but gave me a very
secure server indeed, it immediately closed the connection upon any HTTP/1.x
GET command. Which NetBSD version are you using? I'm using version 1.3, but
consider upgrading to 1.3.1 or 1.3.2 since it seems to be near now. I got some
warnings when compiling, did you? Also, the https server doesn't recognise the
SSL-cache commands.

How did you configure SSLeay? I used ./Configure gcc.
