Hello
=20
I've setup SSL on my apache web server with client authentication and
the first request from the client seems to be successful or at least
partially, before I send a second request I get a " SSL input filter
read failed error" that I see on my server logs while the client is also
complaining about read failed error.

Here's the message from my access.log(1) and error.log(2)
<1> 109.4.71.56 - - [12/Jun/2006:22:03:23 -0500] "POST

Any help is appreciated.
TIA
