Re: [OpenCA-Devel] HTTPS support for OCSPD

Ciao Alex, my concerns about publishing CRLs over HTTPS are based on the fact that if you do that, the OCSPD will probably have no problems, but other apps will - as that URL (HTTPS) will be used by many other apps besides the OCSP, it is wise to consider it carefully before doing so :D About th

Hi Alex, sorry for the delay in my answer. Indeed I have seen that you already sent the code in the list. I am actually in the process (well, I should start in the next few weeks) to port the OCSPD to use LibPKI to simplify keymanagement and hardware integration. I am not sure if I want to integ

Hi Alex, actually I would suggest to NOT USE HTTPS for publishing CRLs. First of all, CRLs are signed, the authentication is in the data itself. Second of all, you may incur in a "I can't verify the SSL certificate presented by the server because I need the CRL in order to proceed". This may not

OK, Although I haven't got any response to my previous mail, I'll dare to share my code with you anyway (just in case somebody finds it useful). Diffs for modified .c and .h files are attached. All modifications are under #ifdef USE_CURL (or #ifndef USE_CURL), so essentially you can decide at com

Hi Alex, I'm just thinking loadwhy should OCSP served over https? Isn't the response signed anyway? I'm interested to know what lead you to add https, perhaps something I didn't thought about? Alex Agranov wrote: Hi, I did a small change to the OCSPD v1.5.1rc1 source code that repla

Hi, I did a small change to the OCSPD v1.5.1rc1 source code that replaces built-in HTTP protocol implementation by a cURL library. Major purpose for this change - support of HTTPS protocol as well as authentication support for HTTP. I checked the modified code in my environment and it seems to
