I think I was misunderstood.
It 's not a browser problem.
The fact is that my company is a credit card payment acquirer and CC companies
stated that we must use strong encryption SSL to acquire credit card payments.
The 40 bit browsers are welcome at the same time, but if You enter your CC number
the risk is Your if somebody thiefs the number. We, from our point, are safe because
we are using a strong criptography server.
I hope this explains all.
I newly want to make know that it' s not a Cipher problem but the mode Mod_ssl works.
It works fine on Linux (Unix Machines) and has malfunctions on Windows NT.
C2Net Stronghold 3.0 is nothing more than Apache 1.3.12 + Mod_SSL 2.6.4 + OpenSSL 0.95a
on Unix (HPUX,Linux,Solaris,AIX etc) and works fine.
All I want is making OpenSA work the same as in Unix boxes so I can revert to it.
Regards.
