I have a customer that is worried about the latest SSL vulnerability POODLE. They have a utility (IIS Crypto 1.4) that disables SSL 2.0-3.0 on the servers they run it on. They have disabled SSL on both the server my service is running and the remote SQL Server. The SQL connection string is pretty standard:
Server=myServerIPAddress;Database=myDataBase;User Id=myUsername;Password=myPassword;
When my service starts it tries to perform a Linq to SQL query and gets the error:
A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the pre-login handshake. (provider: TCP Provider, error: 0 - An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.)
If they re-enable SSL on the SQL Server it works fine. My program is a Windows Service built on .NET 3.5. What is the cause of this error, and where can I make adjustments so my service will run?
edit: below is the stacktrace that is spit out by my program when it tries to load
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the pre-login handshake. (provider: TCP Provider, error: 0 - An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.)
