I think you've misunderstood what SSL_CTX_get_timeout() does. This timeout is the SSL session timeout which lets you decide how long an SSL session can stay in cache before it becomes non-resumable. The openssl manual pages have sufficient info. [snip..] > > $ ./my_test_code > Session ID timeout value = 7200 > > what is the meaning of 7200?

And it hasn't got anything to do with ur certificates. > > What is wrong in my codes?
