Below is the curl command I ran and the results. Can you help with the handshake error that I am getting. I have run out of options. Is there something the certificate which I got from the vendor or something else going on? Any direction or help would be great. I did get curl to work connecting to another Unix server via ftp so I know curl works ok.

What version of curl?

Great password. I hope you don't use it for anything but your cert.

You don't want ftps: here. That will encrypt the control channel, which this
server doesn't want. You want a plain ftp: URL here and the --ftp-ssl option
to negotiate SSL in the ftp session.

This is always bad. Can you run this under a debugger and see where it fails?
