[smokeping-users] curl: (35) Unknown SSL protocol error in connection

[Michael McCarn]

I could not figure out how to make my Linksys WRT54G respond to "ping",
so I'm using Curl to monitor it using https.  
 
The router has a self-signed certificate, requiring "insecure_ssl = 1"
 
When using 'ssl2' I get an SSL protocol error trying to connect
 
Changing "ssl2 = 1" to "ssl2 = 0" does not remove '-2' from the Curl
invocation, but adding "-3" to "extraargs" lets my probe work.
 
 
extract from *** Probes *** in etc/config:
============================
+Curl
binary = /usr/bin/curl
forks = 5
offset = 50%
step = 300
# The following variables can be overridden in each target section
agent = User-Agent: Lynx/2.8.4rel.1 libwww-FM/2.14 SSL-MM/1.4.1
OpenSSL/0.9.6c
extraargs = --head --user user:password
extrare = / /
insecure_ssl = 1
interface = ppp0
pings = 5
ssl2 = 0
timeout = 20
urlformat = http://%host%/ # mandatory
 
extract from *** Targets *** in config:
===========================

menu = <removed>
