That's your shell talking. Try: openssl ciphers -v 'HIGH:!RSA'# note the single-quotes You just have to tell the shell not to interpret the bang, by quoting it -- either with a backslash or in an uninterpreted-quoted string. -Kyle H __ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing Listopenssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
