Heikki Toivonen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: Could you clarify your comment regarding hostname check being false security?
Just about all SSL texts I have read say you must do that, and that is what your web browser and email client does to ensure it is talking to the right host, for example. Without that check you are subject to a man in the middle attack. Or is there some other check you perform that is better? _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1589> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
