Can client and server use different JSSE provider?
[128 byte] By [JSTigera] at [2007-10-2 13:00:33] 
I have a client using SunJSSE, and server using IBMJSSE. Is this kind of configuration supported?Thanks,JST
Yes, the protocol is standardized by RFC2246 so any implementation that claims to support the RFC should work, including not just Sun and IBM JSSE but also C/C++ clients via OpenSSL &c.
There is a small gotcha in that the IBM JSSE supports SSL 2.0 and I think more cipher suites than Sun's (who don't support 2.0 either), but they should be able to negotiate a communication if left to themselves.
