The IOHandler's Passthrough property is initially False by default. SSL is
enabled only when Passthrough is False.

The Passthrough property for the IOHandler of a new connection on the server
is set to True by default, not False. You have to programmably set it to
False, such as in the server's OnConnect event, in order to enable SSL on
that connection.

That is because you did not activate SSL on the server side of the
connection, so the client side fails to negotiate a secure connection.
