RE: Inconsistent SSL error

When I use: curl_global_init( CURL_GLOBAL_SSL );

I get "SSL: couldn't create a context!" on my workstation
and "Couldn't resolve host ..." on the win2k server

curl_global_init( CURL_GLOBAL_ALL ) seems to take care of that.

I don't think so. Quite a lot of people use curl successfully with SSL and
if
we had made such a big error, many others would've had this problem much
more
often.

So if you use this call, you get a different error than when you didn't use
it?

"Couldn't resolve host"? For a host name that truly existed/resolved?
