That's the opposite as to what I have done. :)
From what I have read I gathered that Event Triggered is MUCH faster.
But I guess I could have gotten it all wrong.

It takes a lot of experience to develop a system that can handle more than
10,000 simultaneous connections. I don't think it's re
Hi,
If I may attempt a slightly better response than my first one! Sorry
to openssl-dev people about spamming your list with this. Probably
this email is better suited to openssl-users, so I'm cross-posting it.

Thanks for all your help guys. Those links were great! I liked Areg's the
best: very detailed and complete (and good for beginners). =)
Just a question or two to clarify:
1) I noticed the certificates created in the tutorial had a *.pem extension.
The ones I'm used to dealing with had a *.cer on
Hi Joseph,
It's been awhile since I've looked at OpenCA. The manual was almost
impossible to read and seemed to be quite a rough translation from
German. Do you know if any work has been done on cleaning that up in the
past 12 months or so?
Yes, a lot - I am member of the dev team so I know wha

There is no need to call RAND_screen() more than once.
0.9.4 is vulnerable to attacks because the random number generator is
not seeded with sufficient entropy. 0.9.6e takes more time in order
to generate the necessary entropy.
Using a hardcoded seed value with make your connections vulnerable.

Good question... I'm not an expert on the cryptography aspect but I think what happens
is that your encryption becomes "predictable" - that is, the same input plaintext,
encrypted twice, produces the same encrypted data. This leaves you open to a frequency
analysis attack. This is not the case
