      Submitter did not understand the intent of SSLv2Hello. This should
      be clarified, and include the effects of what happens on both client
      and server sides.

      ****

      When disabling "SSLv2Hello" on the server (by calling
      javax.net.ssl.SSLServerSocket.setEnabledProtocols with a string array
      containing "SSLv3" and "TLSv1"), I get this exception:

        javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: SSLv2Hello is disabled

      on the server when the client initiates a handshake.

      In order for this to work, I also need to explicitly disable
      "SSLv2Hello" on the client.
