Description piio 2014-11-21 09:18:14 UTC
Description of problem:
After update to crypto-policies-20141119-1.gitbe6fb4f.fc22.noarch I can't connect to MS Win 2008R2 servers using NLA using freerdp and remmina with error protocol security negotiation or connection failure, freerdp_set_last_error 0x20008
Error: protocol security negotiation or connection failure
Reverting back to crypto-policies-20140905-1.git4649b7d.fc22.noarch resolves problem.

This is because that change disables SSL 3.0. Can't these servers use TLS 1.0 or later?

Well, even if it is possible to somehow change things on the Windows side to make this work, unless that change gets pushed via Windows update, that is still going to make this look very broken for many users.

Comment 4 Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos 2014-11-24 10:12:08 UTC
I've reverted the SSL 3.0 prohibition until there is some change request to disable it globally. Then we see how such programs can work around it.

Comment 5 Bill Gianopoulos 2014-12-20 18:08:31 UTC
This appears to have been fixed by a subsequent update to freerdp-libs.
