[jira] [Commented] (HTTPCLIENT-1119) Server Name Indication (SNI) Support

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1119?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13796785#comment-13796785 ] 

Oleg Kalnichevski commented on HTTPCLIENT-1119:
-----------------------------------------------

I don't know. This only makes SNI support in Java 7 look shoddier to me. Anyway I am glad the problem can be worked around this way though I do not quite understand why creating a plain socket and then laying SSL over it should behave differently than just creating a SSLSocket directly (which internally should be doing the same anyway). I would happily commit the patch if you could port and re-test it with HC 4.3.

> Provide support for Server Name Indication (SNI) support as per RFC 3546 (section 3.1).
> Currently attempting to connect to SNI enabled host 'expectedhost' over SSL using http client results in an SSLException similar to:
> javax.net.ssl.SSLException: hostname in certificate didn't match: <expectedhost> != <defaulthost>
>   at org.apache.http.conn.ssl.AbstractVerifier.verify(AbstractVerifier.java:220)
> We use SNI on some of our environments and were trying to use httpclient to automatically test host access and availability.
