SSL error

Subject: SSL error
Date: Tue, 29 Nov 2005 17:57:12 +0200 (IST)
Did anyone find a solution to the "SSL routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:sslv3
alert bad record mac" error when connecting from the nessus client to the localhost nessusd server?


I tried using the following versions of openssl:
openssl-0.9.8.a-4 (from Debian package)
openssl-0.9.7i (compiled from source)

nessus version: nessus.2.2.6 (from nessus.org)

and just for kicks I tried compiling nessus.2.2.6 with gcc 4.0.3 and
3.3.4. I also tried bypassing the SSL cert all together by using the
-x flag but I still get the following error:

bob@machine:~$ nessus -x -c ~/.nessusrc -qp localhost Username Password
[6723] SSL_connect: error:140943FC:SSL routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:sslv3
alert bad record mac
nessus : SSL error

any work arounds?
