TLS over SSL

Submitted by Anonymous on Tue, 2008-09-02 15:27.

I made an observation that I thought I would point out - If my client connects with an SSL socket, the Tigase server still offers the "start-tls" option.

In my experience (with XCP and Openfire), server's usually don't offer tls over an ssl socket. I have no idea what the spec says (if anything) on this matter, but I figured I'd mention it, just in case you care ;)

Thanks for the great server.

Indeed it does offer TLS over SSL and as far as I know it even allows you to do it. I mean, it happened to me by mistake that I connected a test client over SSL and then TLS has been activated and it worked.

Of course it is not intended "feature" and behavior. We are going to cleanup stream features stuff very soon. So each feature should be announced only when it does make sense.
