MSSQL 2000 SSL Snapshot problem

Currently I am running 2 MSSQL SQL 2000 Enterprise servers running on Win2k3
utilizing SSL via "force protocol encryption". The systems are running fine
with the exception of Snapshots and/or DTS packages that write to the local
disk. When trying to get a snapshot to run for the local machine I recieve
the following error:
General network error. Check your network documentation.
(Source: SERVER (Data source); Error number: 11)
If I turn off "force protocol encryption" the snapshot works just fine.
I suspect the replication binaries do not support SSL. You should contact MS
(PSS) for further clarification on how to configure this.

|||Some tables will successfully produce a snapshot, however, it is quite hit or
miss so I believe that the binaries do support SSL. I've also looked into it
being a possible issue with a timeout, however, that isn't the root cause as
the error occurs within seconds of the snapshot starting
