Bodo, thanks for your response. You're right, I wasn't aware of how session caching is supposed to work. Is there anyway to optimize the connection overhead (connections from multiple clients)? I have been trying to download lots of small files from an in-house server. I get very poor through

Re: [STATUS] OpenSSL (Sun 18-Jul-1999)

1999-07-19 Thread Clark C. Evans
I have a few questions (could not locate a FAQ) 1. Is there any support for SET certificates? 2. I assume that OpenSSL does not provide for any certificate management, and this is currently the domain of openca.org Thanks! Clark Evans __

I have noticed that much of the overhead of an openssl session is during the connection stage. Is it possible for me to use only one SSL_session for every connection that which I accept. This will make it easier to crack a session, right? Will it also make the connection overhead less? If thi

hello, has anyone successfully built the shared lib version of openssl 0.9.3a for solaris 7 on intel? i've seen some things in the archive that were promising, but nothing that has worked so far. i'm not even sure this is a problem with the libcrypto.so right now, but that is the piece that is
