[Info-vax] %CURL-E-SSL_CERTPROBLEM, SSL problem with the local certificate

Dear all,

I have curl 7.19.5 installed on Alpha - VMS 8.3, with SSL V1.3-281.

Using curl without SSL works fine and performs as expected.  Earlier
this month I raised a support call with HP since, when using curl with
SSL, I keep getting the following error:

$ curl -v --ftp-ssl -o filelist.txt --cacert TATsubCA.pem --cert
certkey.pem:Password ftp://test.somewhere.com/ -l -
-key privkey.pem -k -u my_user:my_pass
* About to connect() to test.cdinternet.com port 21 (#0)
*   Trying an.ip.ad.dr.ess... connected
* Connected to test.somwehere.com (an.ip.ad.dr.ess) port 21 (#0)
< 220-Hello, Welcome to Someone

< 234 SSLv23/TLSv1
* libcurl is now using a weak random seed!
* unable to set private key file: 'privkey.pem' type PEM
* Closing connection #0

%CURL-E-SSL_CERTPROBLEM, SSL problem with the local certificate

Has anyone had any similar experience?  I have managed to get the same
configuration to work on my Windows PC, and on Linux.  Any help would
be appreciated.  HP have managed to re-create the problem and may go
to Engineering, however Curl is not a supported product, so not sure
how successful that is going to be.

Many thanks,

Adam
