https://jira.atlashost.eu/ doesn't work with curl, but works in any browser, or with `wget`.
```
root_at_nwkr-desktop ~ # curl --version
curl 7.38.0 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.38.0 OpenSSL/1.0.1i zlib/1.2.8 libssh2/1.4.3

root@nwkr-desktop ~ # curl https://jira.atlashost.eu/

Last version that works:

OpenSSL string with ciphers: 
EECDH+ECDSA+AESGCM:EECDH+aRSA+AESGCM:EECDH+ECDSA+SHA384:EECDH+ECDSA+SHA256:EECDH+aRSA+SHA384:EECDH+aRSA+SHA256:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-SHA:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-SHA:EECDH+aRSA+RC4:EECDH:EDH+aRSA:RC4:!MD5:!SSLv2:!aNULL:!eNULL:!LOW:!3DES:!EXP:!PSK:!SRP:!DSS
In nodejs 0.10 this string results in only TLS_RSA_WITH_RC4_128_SHA being available. I force-disabled weaker ciphers, so it's not possible to use them at all (e.g. TLS_RSA_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA). My guess is curl has those weak ciphers on its accept list but apparently doesn't have the TLS_RSA_WITH_RC4_128_SHA. This cipher is OK (but not perfect) and if it's the only supported cipher by the server, curl should stick to it.

Let me know how I can help you.
