Hi,

I understand that openssl-0.9.8 support SHA256.
I used the latest openssl-0.9.8 (built on linux) and
executed the following commands.

1) ./openssl ciphers -v ALL

I dont find any mention of SHA256 at all. Part of the
output is as follows:

ADH-AES256-SHA          SSLv3 Kx=DH       Au=None
Enc=AES(256)  Mac=SHA1
DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA      SSLv3 Kx=DH       Au=RSA 
Enc=AES(256)  Mac=SHA1
....................................  
....................................  

There is no mention of SHA256 in the full output. 
Though openssl-0.9.8 is supposed to support SHA256, it
is not present in all the available ciphers/digests.

2)In this scenario, How can I use SHA256 as our choice
of digest? (Can I pass SHA256 in cipherlist parameter
for SSL_CTX_set_cipher_list?, I am not sure if it
works.)

Many Many Thanks in advance.

Regards,
SS
