nginx Digest, Vol 29, Issue 68

[Axel Holscher (GMAIL)]

Hi Maxim,

Wireshark showed it was IE9 that was not sending the URL name, at all, on
first SSL handshake. 
Reset IE9 back to factory default and it works now. 
(..but have not found the actual IE9 security settings that caused theTLS
SNI request to be suppressed  though...yet)

Thanks
Axel

looking what's happening on the wire (e.g. in wireshark) or just test if you
see the same behaviour on the clean install of
