Mmmmh. Is there a way to get the old behaviour with OpenSSL 1.1? We decided that we do want 1.1 compatibility in release/2.4, but what you propose might break people's working config when upgrading from 2.4.1 to 2.4.2 - bad enough if we make mistakes, but if there is an alternative to consciously changing cert validation behaviour in the middle of a release train, we should look again... gert -- USENET is *not* the non-clickable part of WWW! //www.muc.de/~gert/ Gert Doering - Munich, Germany g...@greenie.muc.de fax: +49-89-35655025 g...@net.informatik.tu-muenchen.de
