Re: client continues after server fails

2001-04-24 Thread George Lind

I am "oring" these two constants together in my call to
SSL_CTX_set_verify().  It still doesn't prevent the client from continuing.

Do you have any other suggestions?

Thanks,
George
  

George,

On the server side, in your call to SSL_CTX_set_verify(), you have two
choices if you want to enable client authentication: 1) SSL_VERIFY_PEER, and
2) SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT. The first politely asks the client if it
will please authenticate, but the handshake will succeed even if the client
doesn't authenticate. With the second option, the client must authenticate
or the handshake fails. Are you perhaps using option #1?

client continues after server fails

2001-04-24 Thread George Lind

My server is doing client authentication.  My client is also using verify
peer.  When the client attempts to connect it gets a certificate from the
server and continues on.  The server is not recieving a certificate from the
client so it is failing.  The client attempts to write to the server but the
SSL_write fails because the server has failed.  How can I stop the client
before attempting to write to the server.  Shouldn't the client fail on its
connect if the handshake is not successful on both ends.  

Thanks,
George
