Hi all. Lately, I'm porting a security library I wrote in Java, based on BouncyCastle, to C++, using OpenSSL. Thanks to the openssl-user mailing list, I've been able to solve the first problems I met. However, as an OpenSSL newbie, I think I can say that it would be much easier if OpenSSL

Is there any good documentation on which calls in which order a Telnet application should make for an SSL connection ? The documentation on the Openssl web site only lists the prototypes for each api call. I was taught a long time ago that a product without documentation is worthless. If

No. OpenSSL documents the OpenSSL API, not the Telnet Protocol. The Telnet START_TLS option is currently documented as an IETF Internet-Draft published by the TN3270E Working Group. Is there any good documentation on which calls in which order a Telnet application should make for an SSL

I know where telnet is documented. Where is Openssl documented ? I.E. Where is SSL_connect() documented ?? I see a prototype of it, but I don't see and type of description on what it performs, what other openssl calls are prerequisites , etc Thank You, Jeff Roberts

Re: re[2]: Openssl Documentation

2000-09-29 Thread Jeffrey Altman
The OpenSSL API is documented in the .pod files located in the doc subdirectory. The apps directory provides source code that provide examples of how the API is used in real life situations. There is no tutorial provided on how to write a Telnet client or server that implements START_TLS. I

Hello everybody, Do you know if there's any kind of documentation project going on for Openssl? I'd like to contribute to that. If there ain't is someone thinking of putting one together, I mean, it's almost comparable to medieval alchemy trying to do anything reasonable with OpenSSL when there

I'm just starting to work with SSL and openSSL. Is there any coherent documentation out there that might elucidate how openSSL can be used. Any example programs? Anything? Cheers. Amin Manji EDCU IT CREDIT | FIRST Credit Suisse First Boston Securities (Japan) Ltd. SUISSE | BOSTON
