That's debatable. What's so sacred about separating traffic by port? Valid TLS traffic and valid plaintext HTTP traffic are distinguishable - there aren't any ambiguous cases. > Most people do it the other way and look for a G or P as the first letter. Now *that* is a hack. And wrong, and broken. Looking at the first few bytes to see if they're 1) ASCII uppercase letters and 2) form the prefix of a valid HTTP command would be satisfactory. -- Michael Wojcik Technology Specialist, Micro Focus This message has been scanned for malware by Websense. www.websense.com _______________________________________________ openssl-users mailing list To unsubscribe: https://mta.openssl.org/mailman/listinfo/openssl-users
