Comment on [solved] “ssl/tls alert handshake failure” in ZNC by George Allen

George Allen — Wed, 20 Aug 2025 15:43:28 +0000

Finally got my ZNC to play nice with ancient SSL ciphers—felt like a time traveler! Thanks for the workaround, saved me from a digital Stone Age.

Left here for posterity minus the spam link.
