SSL/SNI from Android Subsonic

Hi,

What does the Subsonic android client use as it's http/https client library ? Does that library support HTTPS with SNI ?

I'm trying this on a Nexus S with android 2.3.4 and I'm getting
"Error: Didn't understand the reply. Please check the server address"

I can access it just fine both externally and internally from my mac laptop or using subAir

My setup is as follows:
I'm using nginx as an https frontend (reverse proxy), and one of it's backends is my subsonic server. The frontend has a separate certificate for each website, and each of them is signed with my own self-signed CA certificate. Frontend/nginx also handles authentication, and rewrites basic auth headers for subsonic.

I haven't gotten around to running ssldump yet, if you happen to know whether https w/ sni is supported or not, I'd be grateful.

btw, firefox for android browser supports it, but android browser doesn't
( http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=12908 ), that's what's got me wondering about subsonic.

Thanks,
-s

I would also like to know if the Subsonic app for Android supports SNI, I am thinking about setting up a few subdomains (one for subsonic) and want to use SSL but I only have one IP...

I have just tried it out, it appears Subsonic for Android does support Server Name Indication.
