Re: [openssl-users] SSL Signalling

2015-08-16 Thread Jakob Bohm
A few tips: 1. The tool "openssl s_client" (with appropriate command line options) can be used (on a PC) to figure out which SSL/TLS options and variations a server is using, this may or may not be easier than waiting for an answer from vertx2. I would link to the online documentation,

Hi Viktor. Thanks for the reply. Yes, we need our (embedded-)clients to talk to our TLS-server. We are using Vertx2 as our server. Its SSL-support APIs are in "SSLSupport" class at http://vertx.io/vertx2/api/java/index.html Going by the APIs, it is not exactly clear what TLS-Algorithm and Ciphe

[openssl-users] How to disable DSO support at runtime?

2015-08-16 Thread Jeffrey Walton
We can disable DSO support at configure time with 'no-dso'. But its not clear to me how to explicitly disable the feature at runtime if the platform/distro provided the OpenSSL libraries (and they were enabled). I took a look at config(5), but that's more for configuration files, and less of runni

Hi there, I noticed this weekend that the man pages are no longer available from the OpenSSL.org site. The site is beautiful, but the man pages are really needed. For example: try openssl.org/docs/ssl/ or openssl.org/docs/apps/ I noticed that the search engine results point to http pages while

Hi All. We wish to exhange data over sockets in embedded-environments, and unfortunately can't afford to use the de-facto openssl implementation, which I believe uses dynamic memory allocations/deallocations in its code (we intend to deploy our solution using bare-metal C, in environments where ev
