Hello everyone,

i installed GNUTLS version 2.5.1 from hand because the one from the
Fedora repository is too old.
When i try to anonymous connect to a "gnutls-server --http" my client
returns:

*** Handshake failed
GNUTLS ERROR: A TLS fatal alert has been received.

The server says:

Error in handshake
Error: Could not negotiate a supported cipher suite.

Could you please help me with that? I don't really know how to proceed
now. I can upload the source code of my test program if you want. It's
mostly a copy & paste from the documentation. (7.3.1 Simple Client
Example with Anonymous Authentication)

[lennart at sundaysister Debug]$ ldd GNUTLSTest 
	[...]
	libgnutls.so.26 => /usr/lib/libgnutls.so.26 (0x00111000)
	[...]

Thank you all!

So long
Lennart
