See below.. everything seems to be working fine but we get these a couple of times a day at random times.
Schannel 36888 - " The following fatal alert was generated: 40. The internal error state is 107."
Schannel 36874 - " An SSL 3.0 connection request was received from a remote client application, but none of the cipher suites supported by the client application are supported by the server. The SSL connection request has failed."

To workaround this issue, we can set the event logging value to 0 under:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL

This simply turns off the error reporting. The events you are seeing are a result of an incompatible browser trying to open OWA or something along those lines. I haven't quite figured out what the problem is yet but it has something to do with an SSL 3.0 request coming into the server but it doesn't know how to handle it. Under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL\Protocols, I see SSL 2.0 but no SSL 3.0 listed. Not sure if this is the problem but that's where I'm heading to troubleshoot.Just so you know, I'm trying to open OWA from my new Acer tablet using the stock browser...it just keeps prompting me to enter credentials then eventually my account gets locked out.
Further investigation I found the following article. I will restart afterhours and see if it fixes this.http://www.techieshelp.com/how-to-enable-ssl-3-0-server-2008-sbs-2008/

We are set to 1 as well.
To disable this it should be set to 0?
should we be concerned about this?
Thanks

You would see these errors if you have TMG server for reverse publishing and are doing HTTP inspection.

Simon_Wu,
So what you're saying is that this error means nothing and that we should just disable the logging of said events?

If everything works properly and you do not want to see this error ID in Applocaiton log, you can workaround to disable it.
Thanks,
Simon
