I am trying to get our ftps server to connect with TLSv1.2. I have updated the oppenssl on our hp ux server to 1.0.1s. I verified that TLSv1.2 is now available using the command openssl s_client -connect google.com:443 -tls1_2. But the ftps server will only connect at TLSv1.0.
If I try to connect using anything higher than 1.0, I get a TLS connect: error in SSLv2/v3 read server hello A buy my client and the syslog.log on the HP-ux server shows SSL_accept(): (5) error:00000000:lib(0):func(0):reason(0)
I have tried different cipher= options in the tls.conf file, but nothing seems to work. I feel like I am missing a step or a configuration file somewhere.
Let me know what sugguestions you might have. Thanks.
Solved! Go to Solution.

For Configuring a WU-FTPD TLS Server and an FTP Client refer page 14 and 15 of WU-FTPD 2.6.1 release notes

Re: can't get ftps server to connect with TLSv1.2
I have seen these instructions and I believe I have it all setup correctly. I have the inetd.conf statement as
ftps stream tcp6 nowait root /usr/lbin/ftpd ftpd -l -v -i -o -z config=/etc/ftpd/security/tls.conf -z usetls
I have the tls.conf file with I believe are the correct settings of
usetls
tlsdata
tlsonly
debug=1
cipher=ALL:!ADH:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM:-LOW:-SSLv2:-EXP:!kEDH
CAfile=/etc/ftpd/security/xxx_base64.pem
rsacert=/etc/ftpd/security/xxx_base64_cer.pem
rsakey=/etc/ftpd/security/xxxkey.pem
the server is running and I can connect, but only at tlsv1 and nothing higher. but again I have verified that with the openSSL update that I do have TLSv1.2 available. So I just can't seem to get the ftps server to use the higher version.

Re: can't get ftps server to connect with TLSv1.2
Ok so reviewing the instructions, I have the WU-FTPD 2.6.1 installed, but I don't think I have the ftp-ssl-ncf FTP TLS enhancement software installed. So that might be the issue. can you point me in how to get this software?

Re: can't get ftps server to connect with TLSv1.2
disregard the previous post regarding needing ftp-ssl-ncf FTP TLS enhancement software
I have HP-UX 11i v3 and the software should be included....so I am back to having no idea what is wrong.

SolutionI found the problem. I had been seeing in my log the ftp server version of 2.6.1 so I thought it was the updated version. I did not realize there was a revision number and I had Revision 9. Looking through the release notes I found that version 10 had something to do with a new openssl. I updated to the latest version of the ftp server revsion 12 and it started to work correctly.
