Hello, > how does openssl 0.9.8b support tls? I went through the code and it > looks like tls is just like an alias for SSLv3. > Can someone tell me where exactly TLS1 and SSLv3 differ? In general they are very close, but main difference are: - protocol version in messages (SSL3: 0300, TLS1: 0301) - altert protocol messages ( SSL3: 12, TLS1: 23) - message authentication mechanism - key material generation mechanism - "CertificateVerify" handshake packet calculation - "Finished" handshake packet calculation
> What are the changes that they will differ in future? I do not know.
