Hi *,

During the SSL Handshake, OpenSSL  can call a verify_callback 
that can manipulate the outcome of the certificate verification
process.
If I use some longterm evaluation like an OCSP-Request, my single
threaded application is blocked during this time. I cannot return
a value like "I don't know yet, ask later" - I have to have the
decision before I return from the callback.
So, there is no change for handling other connections (I usually use
select() and async IO to handle multiple connection which OpenSSL
can do pretty well in all other states...) during that time.

Does anybody have a solution?
Thanks in advance,

Joerg

P.S.: I thought I had send this email a couple of days ago already,
but it did not show up - so I assume, I didn't :-(
