The Login page does not appear when you use Windows Internet Explorer 7 to access a Novell GroupWise WebAccess-based Web site
When you use Windows Internet Explorer 7 to access a Novell GroupWise WebAccess-based Web site, the Login page does not appear. Instead, the Login page appears to stop responding (hang) after it starts to load. When this issue occurs, you may receive the following error message in the Web-browser window:
A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.
If you use a different Web browser to access the Web site, the Login page loads successfully.
You experience this issue if the Web site is running Novell GroupWise WebAccess version 6.5.
This issue occurs if the Apache SSL module does not correctly support Transport Layer Security (TLS). By default, Windows Internet Explorer 7 tries to establish a TLS connection with the Web server. If this connection is unsuccessful, Windows Internet Explorer 7 tries to fall back to an SSL 3.0 connection. In this scenario, the Web server may stop responding during the fallback process.
To work around this issue, upgrade the Apache SSL module to the latest version. For more information about how to obtain updates for the Apache HTTP Server, visit the following Apache Web site:

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
