Hello,

It seems that the cipher suites are not supported anyway.
The code usually reaches some kind of error or abort.

If I recall correctly, there might be one or two cipher suite ID exceptions
to the above statement. The patch adds a debug message in case
the fips mode is detected and tries to fail early without reaching
abort(). 

The lan auth.c calls MD5_Init from openssl.
http://www.openssl.org/docs/fips/fipsnotes.html

The change is there mostly to add user friendly non-crash end
rather then fips compliant code.

Hi,

it would be great if there was any info, any info at all. I also
believe your patch is wrong/missing something ... like couple more
#ifdef-s.

Thanks,
Z.
