Then I still don't understand your remarks. You said "is there any reason for the clients in the stdlib are not carrying a ca_file", but this isn't actually true: clients in the stdlib *do* carry the CA file and *do* perform verification, see ftplib, nntplib, imaplib, http.client, etc. It's just that it was forgotten in xmlrpc.client. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13856> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
