(There are suites with no auth at all -- A[EC]DH, KRB5, PSK -- but they are rarely used.) The TLS RFCs (2246, 4346, 5246) show the maximal message flow, with description of which messages are omitted (or varied) in various cases. I don't know anything that lays out all the cases separately. 4158 describes and pictures several possible CA architectures, although some of them are IMHO not very practical. > SSL does not deal with CSRs at all, those are used for CA operations > and obtaining certificates, <snip> > SSL/TLS the protocol does not, but OpenSSL does. ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
