We have multiple Windows 2008 R2 servers running in a web farm (IIS) that receive the following message occasionally Log Name: System Source: Schannel Date: 6/29/2011 4:14:35 PM Event ID: 36887 Task Category: None Level: Error Keywords: User: SYSTEM Computer: %systemname% Description: The following fatal alert was received: 0.

From other posts, this appears to be SSL related, but I haven't found a post with a code 0. If someone could provide some assistance to what this code level means, it would be appreciated.
