Hi,
Does Openssl support IPv6 officially?.
AFAIK the libssl and libcrypto libraries do not use sockets at all,
these are left to the applications/libraries using them.
So openssl does neither support ipv4 nor ipv6.
apparently you've never used s_client, or looked at the *ancient* bug
explicitly asking that IPv6 support be added for s_client & s_server in
OpenSSL. It even has a patch that's been widely used for years by major
linux distributions.
It boggles the mind that to this day that patch has not been integrated in
the 5 years since the bug was opened.
