I am newbie to Open SSL . I am already have an application where server and client are using Openssl libraries for Diffie hellman encryption.I wanna convert server to compleatly to C# .
I have .pem file in both server and client so i assume we have same DH parameters (g and p) in client and server and no need to exchange this parameters . Here are my questions. -What is criteria for choosing a random number (a). Do I need to choose a number with specific length ? -Soon after client get connected do i have to send g pow(a)%p (A). If yes is there any format for this -In .pem file i could see section ---DH Parameters--- why is this for Is this encrypted value of g and p i don't have to use it. -how do i encrypt an decrypt message with the secrete key i have to XOR every byte with the secret key Over all my question what is low level flow and from server side. I am using DH1024. I am new to C as well so i cant go thought the Open SSL source code and understand what exactly happening Thanks in advance. -- View this message in context: http://openssl.6102.n7.nabble.com/Diffie-hellman-Open-SSL-Client-and-C-Server-tp47524.html Sent from the OpenSSL - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
