As it stands right now, I've backed the hooks out because I'm pretty sure
they aren't in the right place. We haven't worked out a means of backward
compatibility, because that would require that the old clients negotiate
crypto, which isn't backwards. :) So the code to hook to the server that
I *had* in there assumed crypto every time, using a shared Diffie Helman
public key.
I just finished implementing Hal's modified CFB, (I call it Periodic CFB,
or PCFB), and am ready to bring it into the server as soon as we decide
where it needs to go.
Last night, with the old code, I tested a couple of servers with the
always-on-crypto. Apart from the problems with padding that I outlined
(which aren't a problem with PCFB) it worked like a charm.
