Hallo, I'm trying to compile openSSL for a system without network and filesystem support. (L4-microkernel) Is there a kown combination of compiler options to do this? On the moment I try it with this one Configure linux-perseus -DOPENSSL_NO_SSL3 -DOPENSSL_NO_SSL2 -DOPENSSL_NO_T

OpenSSL 0.9.7a - Small (585 byte) memory leak

2003-12-12 Thread Anthony Neal
Hi there, One of our projects uses an OpenSSL based plug-in which, according to the OpenSSL memory debug logs, is leaking about 585 bytes. The log is as follows: [10:57:19] 1856 file=err.c, line=949, thread=16384, number=332, address=08087550 [10:57:19] 1859 file=lhash.c, line=193, thread=1638

Cert Dates & GMT Not Before Date Invalidating Cert

2003-12-12 Thread Fred Crable
I created a cert and it's fine, but the client app is rejecting it because it's 5 hours off GMT Does anyone know what I need to change, (timezone settings??) so my cert is valid now and not 5 hours from now (EST) The call to SSL_get_verify_result(ssl) is failing w/ case X509_V_ERR_CERT_N

I figured it out... The times on the two boxes were a little out-a-wack by 10 minutes... FYI to everybody doing their own Certs, make sure the Time is the same across the board clients/servers. Also, it appears that all cert time comparisions are in GMT, is this correct? Thanks, Fred Crable

Is anyone using openssl with Cisco VPN gadgets? I could use some instructions (anything on the web?) with the steps involved in setting up our own CA to test the possibilty of this.

Thanks for the info. We've looked at OpenCA but it utilizes openssl so I figured it would be possible to do some command-line testing.
