Hey Thomas, I really hate to bother you, but I tried to send the attached message to the lynx-dev mailing list for some help on a problem I'm having between two versions of lynx I use on two different systems my ISP uses. Can you forward this to the list for me? many, many thanks, john red-horse tijeras, nm
--- Begin Message ---Dear Pros, On one of the systems that I use on my ISP's network, I'm having a problem logging into my account at wsj.com via the https-savvy form. Let me provide some background. One is running a Linux OS (this is the system that fails to make the connection properly): Linux chishio 2.4.29-rc1 #1 SMP Fri Jan 7 16:41:59 MST 2005 i686 GNU/Linux with lynx version (as reported from https://www.gnutls.org:5555/): Client's browser version: Lynx/2.8.5rel.1 libwww-FM/2.14 SSL-MM/1.4.1 GNUTLS/1.0.16 Cipher key size: 128 the other is SunOS: SunOS yagi 5.8 Generic_108528-10 sun4u sparc SUNW,UltraSPARC-IIi-Engine Client's browser version: Lynx/2.8.4rel.1 libwww-FM/2.14 SSL-MM/1.4.1 OpenSSL/0.9.4 Cipher key size: 192 The WSJ login script appears to be expecting a TLS encryption key (as best as I can figure from the trace file) of a specific size.
