sorry for the long delay in responding.  i just got around to testing this
myself, and i can confirm that SSL does not work on windows (it crashes any
process that attempts to use SSL).  unfortunately, this cannot be fixed for
6.8.1, but should be for 6.8.2.

after testing, i found that it worked for daemon-to-daemon authentication,
but if you submit a job by authenticating with SSL, the condor_schedd will
crash.  the good news is that this bug was fixed in time for 6.8.1.

i agree with that assessment.
