[rabbitmq-discuss] Not able to get ssl working with rabbitMQ server

Wed Jan 22 06:43:49 GMT 2014

Hi ,
I am trying to configure rabbitMQ server with SSL. However it is not working. I was just trying t make sure if my server configuration is fine and I used the openssl s_client  as per http://www.rabbitmq.com/troubleshooting-ssl.html
Could you please help me out finding the problem with my setup.
Thanks
Kausik
