Exactly. My online bank uses the RC4-MD5 (128 of 128 bits) SSLv3 cipher, so it is not very usefull to me, to uncheck it. > I don't really know by which criteria the ciphers are selected from the > available list, you'd probably need to ask openssl folks about that. Before you going to do that take a look to something I found: It is a Bug (seems to be fixed in KDE 3.5) http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=86332 (I didn't read all) Heino _______________________________________________ kde-freebsd mailing list kde-freebsd@freebsd.kde.org http://freebsd.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-freebsd
