calling openssl from perl

2003-08-31 Thread Chris Ochs
I've been debating in my head over the best way to call openssl from perl. So far, what I am doing is calling it with 'system' and writing/reading temporary files when there is no password involved, and opening it for writing via a pipe when a password is used and passing it the password via stdin

Thanks for the detailed reply!! Actually I was going to post my code once I am done. It's basically two perl modules, one is the interface to openssl, mainly ca specific functions although I have a perl template for the ciphers as well, and the other one is to handle writing out/retrieving the in

RE: apache-ssl != 1.3.28 - why?

2003-08-31 Thread Jon Barnett
OK. I can understand the reasoning. The patch for 1.3.27 most likely will work with 1.3.28. There aren't big changes in the 1.3.28 distribution but you will need to examine the files changed and the files the Apache-ssl will change. I don't think the security patches affect the SSL areas. But try i

Hello JonB, No, Not at all. As a matter of fact, you're right *on* the mark. They do in fact have the 1.3.28+mod_ssl combo. But I hesitate to go that direction for two reasons. One, I guess I'm a bit of a "purist". In that I have always wanted to stay with the original branch of the SSL tree. Two,

I might be way off the mark here, but can't you use mod_ssl? You can get it from www.modssl.org and it has the 1.3.28 support and is a DSO module. Or is there a specific reason you need apache-ssl? Best regards, JonB > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECT

apache-ssl != 1.3.28 - why?

2003-08-31 Thread null
Greetings, I was wondering why there isn't a patch for the 1.3.28 version of apache, that might be compatible with openssl v.0.97b. My big reason for the need for 1.3.28, is to add an additional module as a DSO. But unfortunately it requires 1.3.28 - I'm currently running 1.3.27. Is it possible to
