Support showed me what registry keys to change on the client to make the
connect. What the heck, it doesn't matter that I selected 8085 once in the
past. I can certainly remember the new port number.

Now to turn off the SSL requirement. What is really strange about the use of
SSL, is that it is only used for the server console. The client computers
don't use it. One needs encryption between the keyboard processor dll and the
OfficeScan login page? Just how many people are really afraid of little
people sitting inside their mainboards to steal keystrokes? Frankly, I find
the password a real pain, as I have been manually updating every few days.
(That came about when their automatic download code failed, and then changed
the service account from domain administrator to network. It took them 6
weeks to track that down. I have never really trusted their code since.)
