I am trying to build OPENSSL without any of the RSA algorithms that are
patented and thus restricted for use in the US.
I thought all I needed to do was build it using RSAref , but now I am not
so sure. I saw that even with the Configure options rsaref, that RC4 is
used unless I also include no-RC4. (Note that the just adding the no-RC4
option to the Configure command line resulted in errors in the build. To
build the code, I had to manually edit the Makefile.ssl to prevent the
build from proceeding in the crypto/rc4 sibdirectory.)
Can anyone tell me what are the actual options I should use to build a
version of OPENSSL that will avoid the RSA patented stuff that we are not
supposed to use in the US without paying a fee to RSA?
Is
Configure rsaref no-RC4
sufficient, or are there other cyphers (eg. RC5) that need to be included
in the "no" list.
Thanks,
