  What is the difference between SSL_CTX_SET_cipher_list and 
  SSL_CTX_set_preferred_cipher_list?

 Which version of OpenSSL has the preferred version?  I don't see this in 
 master.

Gaak.  Sorry for the confusion.  Looking at some decade-old local patches. :(

SSL_CTX_set{_preferred)_cipher_list?

2013-05-10 Thread Salz, Rich
What is the difference between SSL_CTX_SET_cipher_list and 
SSL_CTX_set_preferred_cipher_list ?  When and why would I use the preferred 
version? I promise to turn any answers I got into a POD manpage for future 
inclusion :)

And why is there an SSL_set_cipher_list function, but the (misnamed?) 
SSL_set_pref_cipher is a #define'd synonym?

Is your OpenSSL patched by some distribution or with local patches?
