Hi Tobias,

Sure... I'm currently running on Debian 9 stable (x86 32- and 64-bit, ARM
32-bit) but have been experiencing this at least since Debian 8.  I run a
variety of VMs from the release Squeak VM (through 5.1), the Spur builds on
bintray (I think the latest I've tried were dated 6/16/2017) as well as my
own VM builds but confess that I haven't been paying much attention to
whether or not I'm seeing issues more/less in one VM/plugin version or
another as this issue has been creeping up/expanding for about 2 years
now.  I will try to start keeping better track.  I haven't yet had the time
to dig into it deeply but think it's a combination of issues mostly
(entirely?) related to server-side SSL configuration as I've been noticing
sites that used to work no longer do and the number of failures seem to
have tracked site migrations to https.

Thanks,
Phil

you'll often either get a connection timeout or -5 error from the plugin.
Not sure if this is specifically related to SAN support (i.e. is there
additional negotiation that needs to be done?) or if there are some newer
https features that need to be added...

can you tell me your platform and the plugin version you are using? I'd
really like to get rid of those -5's :)

Best regard
