title: HandShake Failure in python(_ssl.c:590)
body: <p>When I execute the below line,</p>
  
  <pre><code>req = urllib2.Request(requestwithtoken) 
  self.response = urllib2.urlopen(req,self.request).read()
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am getting the following exception:</p>
  
  <pre><code>SSLError: [SSL: SSLV3_ALERT_HANDSHAKE_FAILURE] sslv3 alert handshake failure (_ssl.c:590)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The thing is I am able to get the token by pinging the service by using <code>curl</code>.
  During the process of retrieving the token, all the certificates were verified.
  In turn, by using the generated token, i am not able to connect to the service.
  I am getting the above error while trying.
  What could be the reason for that?</p>
