Thanx Henson,
I have to develop secure socket communication for our application. We have
decided to use SSL as an intreface for secore communication. We have to write
some wrapper functions to use SSL for general client and server
communication. But as I was going thru the SSL from last couple of weeks, it
seems I have lost somewhere..
1- Is certificate necessary for communication ?
2- Since we are using SSL internal client-server communication, so we have
decided to use DH for public algo, BlowFish for symmetric key and MD5 for
Aunthentication. I want to use three mechanism for some demo program in SSL.
demo/ssl/client as well as server program. But I am stuck.
I dont know how to incorporate DH parameters in the certificate ?
Dont know how to specify the BlowFish Algo?
Please shread some light
thanx
