Hello Why should I use SSL_shutdown ? I mean, I have successfully used the closesocket() operations under win98 (async sockets) and the client and server apps are just fine with closing the connection in this manner, so why do I need SSL_shutdown for ? I know it's not secured against a "close socket" attack and it's not a good idea to shutdown the ssl connection in this way, but is this the only difference ?
thanks for enlightenment ;)) ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
