PostgreSQL SSL communication with SecureTcpClient (Ssl v 3.0)

Hello,
I am currently adding SSL support to the Npgsql driver (the .NET data
provider for PostgreSQL). I have tested with the Mentalis Secure Library
(http://www.mentalis.org/soft/projects/ssocket/). I am creating the
SecureTcpSocket as an instance that uses Ssl version 3.0. The PostgreSQL
server is configured as described in
http://developer.postgresql.org/docs...s/ssl-tcp.html . SSL support
is added in pg_hba.conf, via hostssl
The exception I get when I run a test application to connect the
database is something like that:

Unhandled Exception: Npgsql.NpgsqlException: Error in Open() --->
System.IO.IOException: An I/O exception occurred. --->
Org.Mentalis.Security.SecurityException
: An error occurs while communicating with the remote host. --->
Org.Mentalis.Security.Ssl.Shared.SslException: The server hello message
uses a protocol that was not recognized.

Do you have any idea what can be the reason? Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Angel

It is 7.3.3

The Npgsql is 0.5, which supports the 2.0 protocol.

Hello, is it something specific about the startup packet length? I can
try to see if I can fix it if it is from the driver itself. I will try
with 7.4, but it should also operate with postgresql 7.2 and 7.3

You are aware that the connection does not start as a SSL connection, but
begins as a normal one and then switches over.

Specifically, you need to eat the initial "S" or "N" response byte from
the server before firing up the SSL startup handshake.
