Hello all,
I try to connect an openssl client to a ssl server. I use the tool openssl s_client. I use the -msg option in order to qsee the different messages exchanged during the SSL connexion. My purpose is to generate an SSL alert message by the client. Hence I use a trustees file in client side so that the signature verification is performed with a wrong result , which is the case (see the stream below: SSL-Session: Protocol : SSLv3 Cipher : AES256-SHA Session-ID: 2DC601DF4A25DA207C2193AF896846BD1B0FD16B63255BD724E0E07759E66DD6 Session-ID-ctx: Master-Key: AD37549969C6E77AD69954D614F452DFC2EE5670610190AAA8C2E2F08FDCEB84DCC12AF6ADF83C9040C165CBC6121E57 Key-Arg : None Start Time: 1195662480 Timeout : 7200 (sec) Verify return code: 7 (certificate signature failure) Neverthless, I do not see any SSL alert sent by the client to the server in the traces ... My question is : why don't we have an SSL alert message sent by the client to the server ? Is there an option in openssl s_client I should use ? Here is the command line I have used for my test: openssl s_client -connect localhost:8890 -CAfile trustees.pem -showcerts -state -ssl3 -bugs -msg Thank you in advance for your help, ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
