This is Eric Young's SSL and Crypto library. It includes
|
|
|
|
libssl.a:
|
|
An implementation of Netscapes SSL v 2 protocol. This library
|
|
implements the SSL protocol.
|
|
|
|
libcrypto.a:
|
|
General encryption and X509 stuff needed by SSL but not
|
|
actually logically part of it. It includes routines for the following:
|
|
RC4 encryption,
|
|
IDEA encryption - 4 different modes, ecb, cbc, cfb and ofb.
|
|
SHA (SHA-0) and SHA-1 message digest algorithms,
|
|
RSA encryption/decryption/key generation. There is no limit
|
|
on the number of bits.
|
|
Diffie-Hellman key-exchange/key generation. There is no limit
|
|
on the number of bits.
|
|
X509 encoding/decoding into/from binary ASN1 and a
|
|
PEM based ascii-binary encoding which supports encryption
|
|
with a private key.
|
|
|
|
As this is a FreeBSD port, it has been tailored to FreeBSD. It
|
|
uses the DES, MD2 and MD5 from FreeBSD 2.2+. Earlier versions of
|
|
freebsd have a DES library that is missing bits, and SSLeay will
|
|
not compile properly. The answer is to get the latest secure/ dist.
