Received fatal alert: bad_record_mac

[Brad Wetmore]

I was probably too brief in my explanation.  The remote side isn't able 
to decrypt the encrypted packets properly.  It could be any number of 
things, but for some reason the keys exchanged between the peers likely 
was incorrect.  We have seen situations where Solaris' PKCS11 provider 
had some bugs, but we're not aware of any issues with recent versions of 
the JDK.

P.S.  jdk7-dev isn't a support channel.
