To protect people from themselves, by default, NULL encryption is disabled in
SSLeay. To re-enable it, edit the makefile and define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL (or
from the makefile
# SSL_ALLOW_ENULL - define if you want the server to be able to use the
# NULL encryption ciphers.
This will comile SSLeay with the null encryption ciphers. They will still be
disabled from the default cipher list. To enable them,
SSL_CTX_set_cipher_list(ssl_ctx,"DEFAULT:eNULL").
If you always want to use them,
SSL_CTX_set_cipher_list(ssl_ctx,"eNULL")
For various combinatatons, look at the
SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST define in ssl.h to get an idea of how things are done.
ssleay ciphers -v 'cipher string' will print out exactly the ciphers and
ordering that a particular 'cipher_list' will encode.
