Test Your Site for Specific SSL Version Support

Ok, so I had a hell of a time with some PCI compliance stuff.   I was in somebody else’s config and it was a mess.  Basically what I needed was a tool to test for what versions of SSL the server was allowing.   Instead, I kept mucking with the config trying to get all the SSLv2 crap out of it… and it kept accepting SSLv2 requests.  In order to verify I had failed again, I was waiting for the PCI reports to return (2 or 3 hours).  Not very time efficient.

At any rate, here’s what I finally found:

For Windoze Whores:

From the command line:

openssl s_client -host localhost -port 443 -ssl2

Of course you can rotate through your protocols and examine the output.

*Sigh*…
