[gnutls-help] gnutls-cli - handshake failed

[Jarda Gresula]

Hello,

I came across a SSL handshake problem with gnutls-cli when connecting to 
some websites, see below. It is somehow specific to gnutls as 
openssl/Chrome/Firefox can connect fine. 

Is this is a bug in gnutls or do you have any ideas how to troubleshoot it?


$ gnutls-cli --version
gnutls-cli (GnuTLS) 2.12.23
Packaged by Debian (2.12.23-12ubuntu2.1)

$ gnutls-cli www.openlearning.com
Resolving 'www.openlearning.com'...
Connecting to '119.9.9.205:443'...
*** Fatal error: A TLS fatal alert has been received.
*** Received alert [40]: Handshake failed
*** Handshake has failed
GnuTLS error: A TLS fatal alert has been received.

$ gnutls-cli sequencewiz.com
