[Mono-list] XSP ssl
We have XSP working with SSL by following http://www.mono-project.com/UsingClientCertificatesWithXSP#Setting_up_XSP_for_SSL_support however we want to be able to create certificates with OpenSSL with our own CA and be able to create certificates for other uses (apache, etc) with the same CA. Is this possible? anyone have any good examples? Thanks, --Carlos ___ Mono-list maillist - Mono-list@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
Re: [Mono-list] XSP ssl
After a lot of tryouts we have a certificate that works, we copied allof the steps out of: http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/rtrmgmt/cwparent/cw_1105/wlse/2_12/cert_gd/gencert.htm Below are the steps we used from that page, the page is a cisco page and most likely has nothing to do with what we want to use the certificate for but it worked! I hope this is useful to someone else. Required Certificate Extensions The following is an example of the required *certs-exts.cnf *extensions file: [ server_exts ] extendedKeyUsage = 1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.1 [ client_exts ] extendedKeyUsage = 1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.2 Creating a CA Directory To create a CA directory, enter the following commands as a root user: mkdir ca cd ca mkdir certs private reqs echo `01' > serial touch index.txt chmod 0700 private cd .. Creating a Self-signed CA Root Certificate and RSA Key Use the following command sequence to create a self-signed CA root certificate and RSA key. openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:1024 -keyout ./ca/private/root-key.pem -keyform PEM -out ./ca/certs/root-cert.pem -outform PEM -config ./openssl.cnf Use the following command to display the certificate: openssl x509 -in ./ca/certs/root-cert.pem -text Converting a CA Certificate to PKCS#12 Use the following command sequence to convert a CA certificate to PKCS#12 format. This process is useful for importing a CA certificate to a Windows PC for testing purposes. cat ./ca/certs/root-cert.pem ./ca/private/root-key.pem > ./ca/private/root-all.pem openssl pkcs12 -export -in ./ca/private/root-all.pem -out ./ca/certs/root-cert.p12 Creating a Server Certificate Request and RSA Key Use the following command sequence to create a server certificate request and RSA key. openssl req -newkey rsa:1024 -keyout ./ca/private/server-key.pem -keyform PEM -out ./ca/reqs/server-req.pem -outform PEM -config ./openssl.cnf Creating a Server Certificate from the Request Use the following command sequence to create a server certificate from the request and reference the certificate extensions file and required server certificate extension. openssl x509 -req -days 365 -in ./ca/reqs/server-req.pem -CA ./ca/certs/root-cert.pem -CAkey ./ca/private/root-key.pem -CAserial ./ca/serial -extfile ./ca/cert-exts.cnf -extensions server_exts -out ./ca/certs/server-cert.pem Use the following command to display the server certificate: openssl x509 -in ./ca/certs/server-cert.pem -text ___ Mono-list maillist - Mono-list@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
Re: [Mono-list] serial port with mono on freebsd
I have used the SerialPort a lot in mono on linux, what errors do you get? --Carlos On May 10, 2006, at 9:23 AM, Mario Munda wrote: Did somebody use serial port in mono on freebsd? I need to develop an application that would be able to read from and write to serial port. So I tried to open file /dev/cuad0 as a FileStream, but it doesn't work. I'm using Freebsd 6.0 Any suggestions?

While on the topic, does anybody have some good reference material for serial ports? I might have a need to read some information from a device with a serial port, but I'm not to sure of the format the data coming in. Any suggestions/tips/pointers would be greatly appreciated. ___ Mono-list maillist - Mono-list@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list Usually I just read bytes, each device may send the bytes based on some protocol they have, some other devices just send plain text, some devices send/receive plain text plus some sort of check like a crc or similar. I am guessing whatever device you are talking to has some info on their protocol. --Carlos ___ Mono-list maillist - Mono-list@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list

So is it just as simple as opening a Stream of some sort and capturing the bytes? Would you know of any code samples for reading from a serial port in Windows? (P.S. sorry for the hijack) I think it depends on whether you are using .net 2.0 or not. I think on .net 2.0 the SerialPort classes are included on the microsoft framework (someone correct me if I am wrong). I have a package I got from somewhere long time ago (made by MS) that implemented System.IO.Ports for .net 1.0/1.1, that library had almost the same API as .net 2.0 and mono, so I made a few modification to it so it would work on both Linux and Windows without the need of a recompile. The only problem was that on mono it seemed like the System.IO.Ports namespace is in System.dll and on windows for me it was on SerialPort.dll so on Linux I do something crazy which people are gonna laugh at, I make a symbolic link of SerialPort.dll to System.dll and it works fine. If mono did some more serious assembly checks it wouldn't work, specially since all my assemblies are signed! On both reading and writing from the serial port is really easy, I use pretty much the same code. Mono hasn't implemented everything yet, like you can't receive SerialPort events yet like you can on windows, a lot of the Write methods were missing but enough functionality is there to make it usable. I have not looked at the Mono serial ports classes in several months so this may have changed a lot. Hope that helped. --Carlos ___ Mono-list maillist - Mono-list@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
