Debian OpenSSL with FIPS

Hi, I noticed that RedHat and CentOS has special packages of OpenSSL that have FIPS complied into it. Does anyone know where can I locate such a thing for Debian? Thanks, Noam. ___ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il

Hi Noam, I have seen several threads on RedHat and CentOS compatibility with FIPS, and some of these mention openssl-fips-0.9.8e, so I assumed such a package existed. If you did some googling you would find that:

Hi Noam, The RPM you have found is not FIPS compliant. Please see below: 1. I recently googled a lot and digged RedHat website. The only place RHEL is FIPS compliant is with mod_nss (apache SSL with netscape engine.) http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/docs/DOC-19187 I wish to be wrong here. It'll save

2010-01-20 Thread Noam Rathaus
Hi Noam, So the outcome of your research was to move to mod_nss instead of mod_ssl for FIPS? That would be quite weird as OpenSSL should now natively be FIPS compatible Especially with newer packages than openssl-0.9.8j being available (0.9.8k on debian/sid) On Wed, Jan 20, 2010 at 3:41 PM,

Hi Noam, Currently we're using mod_nss and we're seriously considering using mod_ssl with FIPS compliant openssl (which we'll compile ourselves). btw, mod_nss is not in a great place either (FIPS wise). The versions certified are not very recent and there are newer versions for mos_nss which are

Question about VOIP and Faxes

2010-01-20 Thread Ori Berger
Dear Linux-IL, I've been using asterisk, a pstn-sip DID (didww) and a sip-pstn termination (grnvoip) for the last year, and it's been working very well. I'm about to purchase[1] an Epson Artisan 810, which can also work as a Fax, and I would like to put it to that use. (Oh, and I'm located
