2005-03-08 Thread thomas . beckmann
Hello everybody, I am not quite sure which list to address so I chose both. Regarding the news around the breaking of SHA1, I wonder if it is planned or already in work to implement other hash algorithms like SHA256 into OpenSSL. Best Regards Thomas Beckmann

Is it possible to set IV length in EVP_Cipher?

2005-03-08 Thread Antonio Ruiz Martínez
Hello! I have been looking at how I can set the length of the iv parameters in a cipher algorithm. I saw that we can put the IV with EVP_CipherInit_ex(ctx, NULL, NULL, key, iv, do_decrypt); However this length, in RC2_CBC, is 8 bytes I don't know if it is possible to use another

I am condused, really a normal state for me :-). I have a slackware install and it has libssl.so.0, but some apps require libssl.so.2 or libssl.so.4. I go to www.openssl.org and find that 0.9.7m is the latest release. Where are the .2 and .4 major numbers coming from and what distinquishes

I think one of them is the default that came along with your OS. This is to avoid conflict when user installs a different version of the lib later on. Just my guess. tj wrote: I am condused, really a normal state for me :-). I have a slackware install and it has libssl.so.0, but some apps
