I have removed demoCA directory and created new CA hierarchy using CA.pl -newca command. Then I have created server and client certificates using following commands. CA.pl -newreq CA.pl -sign I tried CA.pl -verify command for both server and client certificates and both were ok. When I tried to use these certificates, the handshake process fails saying `no shared cipher`. Thanks in advance.
