Quite a mystery I would say.
Looks like that during TLS initialization (just before saying ok)
server drop the connection.
The TLS packets looks the same, the content obviously is not as
contains keys and encrypted
data.
Could be that the library (either OpenSSL or GnuTLS) you are using on
the client craft some
not so secure keys and server refuse them?
Does the server report some error in the log?
How often does this happen?
I checked and the flag the client/server agree on is the same (0).
