Do you write computer programs, or are you a home user of personal computers?
If you don't write computer programs, then using OpenSSL at the level addressed by this mailing list is not what you are looking for. Some of the products you might buy might use OpenSSL "under the covers," but you would get support generally directly from the companies that produce those products, not this mailing list. Not trying to be mean or off-putting. If I have missed the mark please let me know. Charles From: owner-openssl-us...@openssl.org [mailto:owner-openssl-us...@openssl.org] On Behalf Of John A. Wallace Sent: Tuesday, September 11, 2012 9:36 AM To: openssl-users@openssl.org Subject: openssl on a home LAN I am trying to figure out whether there is any point in using openssl on a home LAN between two computers. Would that improve on security in any way? Would I be limited in the types of OS connections? I mean, could I connect Windows with Linux? Also, if I want to make such a connection between two OS running in virtual machines, could that be done too? Thanks.
