Curl Exit code = 51: SSL connection using (NONE)

Hi,

I'm using

curl 7.8.1 (i386-pc-solaris2.8) libcurl 7.8.1 (OpenSSL 0.9.6b)

to talk to authorize.net to process credit card transactions.

For the most part, curl works great.

But every once in a while, one of our transactions fails with

Curl Exit code = 51
stderr=* SSL connection using (NONE)
stdout=null

Which supposedly means: "The remote peer's SSL certificate wasn't ok"

That doesn't seem too likely.

Now I see in the change log:

CURLE_GOT_NOTHING is a new possible error code

as well as

now properly returns an error code when connection to an SSL server with a
non-legitimate certificate.

Would these changes address the problem?

What exactly IS the problem? (The error sent to stderr doesn't enlighten
me.)

Thanks for any help.
