Hi!
I am writing an implementation of the SSL protocol. I have already
developed the most vital parts of the protocol but now I face an
unexpected problem. When using my SSL server with Netscape or IE
browsers, instead of the ClientHello, as described in the IETF draft
from November 18, 1996:
struct {
ProtocolVersion client_version;
Random random;
SessionID session_id;
CipherSuite cipher_suites<2..2^16-1>;
CompressionMethod compression_methods<1..2^8-1>;
} ClientHello;
I receive messages of the form:
801C0103000008000000100000036131BD079C070EE992320F29C0910BFE
which decoded has nothing to do with the above described structure.
My question is: could you point me some resources where the
https-protocol is described, so that I could learn how to interpret
the ByteArray I receive as ClientHello from different browsers.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
