CA certificate off-line import

2000-06-16 Thread Ivan . Dolezal
Thanks for a lot of material to read. I'd like to repeat my question about importing CA certificate off-line. I though openssl pkcs12 -export -in usercert.pem -inkey userkey.pem -certfile cacert.pem -out user.p12 would work fine, but it didn't. When I tried to add -chain, it told me that the cha

I figured this out. It matters what order you put the libssl.a and libcrypto.a in the makefile. I swapped them and now everything builds. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Lou Sheward Sent: Friday, June 16, 2000 2:13 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECT

I'm trying to work my way through the whole certificate business and I've a small question. How can I view/print/see the contents of a certificate request before I sign it??? I tried the X509 -text option but it failed unless the certificate was already signed. (said it expected a trusted cert).

2000-06-16 Thread Jeffrey Altman
This is completely inaccurate. FTP data channels when using AUTH SSL or AUTH TLS regardless of whether or not passive mode is in use are secured in exactly the same way. Regardless of which end created the connection the FTP Server is the SSL/TLS Server and the FTP Client is the SSL/TLS client.

2000-06-16 Thread Bill Rebey
The trouble is that when an FTP Client connects to an FTP Server, the Client gets a "Control Channel". That's all fine and easy - he is still a client and can do "normal" client stuff like accept the Server's certificate, etc. However, when a Client does something like, say, request a file from t
