Heh. Someone should take a long hard look at the code and see if it can be converted to the Solaris crypto framework. OpenSSL interfaces are in constant change, and have a bunch of problems of their own. (Not least of which, it is really hard to get good acceleration and key management out of OpenSSL.) wpa_supplicant might also be using the TLS protocol code from openssl -- perhaps that part can be lifted or linked statically, after converting it to use Solaris crypto stuff. -- Garrett D'Amore, Principal Software Engineer Tadpole Computer / Computing Technologies Division, General Dynamics C4 Systems http://www.tadpolecomputer.com/ Phone: 951 325-2134 Fax: 951 325-2191
