Is that just "kind of" or "exactly"? Important question, because the
line you showed us is faulty:
dpalaitis> bash% cat dg.txt netscape-4.71-linux | openssl s_client
dpalaitis> -connect 10.0.0.100:5150 -cert EntrustCert1.pem
dpalaitis> -key EntrustKey1.pem < DG01.txt
You see, it's a bit hard to get a stdin with more than one source (one
through redirection and one through the pipe, in your case). Bash
will (I just checked) give a redirection higher prority than input
coming from a pipe, so you end up feeding only DG01.txt to s_client.
I would suggest the following instead:
cat DG01.txt dg.txt netscape-4.71-linux | openssl s_client \
-connect 10.0.0.100:5150 -cert EntrustCert1.pem \
-key EntrustKey1.pem
However, there's another problem as well. As soon as EOF is reached,
s_client will shut down the connection and exit *without waiting for
anything*. So, the transfer of your input gets through so quickly
that the response won't get through before s_client shutdown the
connection...
