Ok, I'm sure I'm doing something wrong, i just dont know what.  I'm
attemting to create a test client that connects to an existing ssl
server that runs on a socket on an unix server.  It uses ssl to encrypt
the connections so I need such functionality in .NET C#.

I'm watching the log file which writes both the connection information
and requests recieved as well as the response data, yet I never see my
request get to the server.  I dont see any exceptions either when i run
it.  I have the close elsewhere, but when I close the connection still
nothing happens.

url is an instance of the Url class provided in the code examples by
mentalis.org.

Here is my code:

private SecureTcpClient mySecureClient;
private SecureNetworkStream mySecureNetStream;
SecureProtocol sp = SecureProtocol.Tls1 | SecureProtocol.Ssl3;
try
{
    SecurityOptions options = new SecurityOptions(sp);
    options.Certificate = null;
    options.Entity = ConnectionEnd.Client;
    options.CommonName = url.Host;
    options.VerificationType = CredentialVerification.None;
    options.Verifier = null;
    options.Flags = SecurityFlags.Default;
    options.AllowedAlgorithms = SslAlgorithms.ALL;
    mySecureClient = new SecureTcpClient(url.Host, url.Port,options);

}
catch (Exception execpt)
{
    MessageBox.Show("Exception occurred while connecting: " +
execpt.ToString());
    return;
}

try
{
    string request = "Hello";
    byte[] reqBytes = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(request);
    mySecureNetStream = mySecureClient.GetStream();
    mySecureNetStream.Write(reqBytes,0,reqBytes.Length);
}
catch (Exception except)
{
    MessageBox.Show("Exception occured while sending: " +
except.ToString());
    return;
}
