How can I check if a server has ssl enable or not

Question

How can I check my application code, if my server has SSL enabled or not?

Answer 1

For example

>>> import urllib2

>>> urllib2.urlopen('https://intellipaat.com')

Traceback (most recent call last):

...

urllib2.URLError: <urlopen error (10060, 'Operation timed out')>

>>> html = urllib2.urlopen('http://intellipaat.com').read()

>>> len(html)

146271

>>> 

It shows that intellipaat.com doesn't support SSL (2008).
