(that is i am not choosing a cipher suit from the list ) Why won't you use SSL_CTX_set_cipher_list()? Using it you get any default you like and don't have to depend on a more or less arbitrary OpenSSL default. Ciao, Richard -- Dr. Richard W.

default cipher suit in open ssl
hai friends, which is the default cipher suit in open ssl library ? i print all the cipher suits using openssl ciphers , but i can't find out which is the default cipher suit ? thax rajesh -- ___ Sign-up for Ads Free at Mail.com http://promo.mail.com/adsfreejump.htm __ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List[EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
