right. > > Jörg did most of the client side SSL coding. But AFAIK timeouts should > be possible. I wanted to know how to do it :-) I tried to use SSL_CTX_set_timeout(), but it didn't help. SSL_SESSION_set_timeout() wants a session state construct which I don't know where to get from. and the OpenSSL docs say that I can use non-blocking IO if I wish, but doing that I would have to rewrite too much of conn.c, and I don't know enough about neither SSL nor conn.c to do that in any decent amount of time - so I was looking for any kind of help available :-) > Is it the case that the SSL-enabled HTTP server works sometimes and > sometimes not? I guess it's not a Apache+mod_ssl installation?! :)) Yes - it's a BEA WebLogic, and it's not my server - so I can't do much about it. also the people running that server are not very forthcoming when it comes to helping out with that kind of problems. Oh well, back to the old drawing board ;-> -- Oded Arbel m-Wise Inc. [EMAIL PROTECTED] Capt'n! The spellchecker kinna take this abuse!
