ircd-hybrid with SSL

[blindenvy]

I am having the same issue. I followed the same instructions but whenever I try and connect I get "Irssi: warning SSL handshake failed: Connection refused"

My outputs when building:

I can connect no problem when not trying to use SSL. Any Ideas?

It turns out it wasn't a problem with ircd but was a problem with the client I was trying to use. When using irssi I had to supply it the port along with the -ssl option. i.e. /connect -ssl server.com 6670
