Short: Information on AmiSSL, SSL package for Amiga Author: Andrija Antonijevic Uploader: Andrija Antonijevic Type: comm/net Requires: Any AmiTCP-alike TCP/IP stack Because of legal reasons I can't upload AmiSSL to Aminet. However, you can get it from my homepage: http://www.bigfoot.com/~TheAntony/AmiSSL/ Here is short list of its features: - Full SSL support as shared libraries package on Amiga (something like MiamiSSL). - Based on OpenSSL 0.9.4 which many things use (Apache SSL and mod-ssl, Voyager, IBrowse). This means that these things can get ported/recompiled to use AmiSSL pretty easy. - It should work with any AmiTCP alike TCP/IP stack (AmiTCP, Genesis, Miami...) - Has international (which uses RSA) and USA/Canada version (which uses RSARef package from RSADSI). - It has most used ciphers/message digests as shared libraries with freely available developer material. This means that, for example, AmTelnet could use IDEA, DES, Blowfish and other ciphers from AmiSSL for SSH thus saving (quite) a bit of memory. Another example is Amiga version of PGP which could use ciphers from AmiSSL. - It has versions optimized for different processors. (PPC version for PowerUp boards is possible if someone would be kind enough to volunteer to be my guinea p... I mean, do some tests for me O:)) - Ciphers can be easily left out of it. For example, you can just replace rc4.library with dummy version of it, and everything still works. No need for patching the main library to add/remove ciphers. - Includes port of openssl program (named amissl) which does lots of things including any kind of certificate manipulation, encrypting, decrypting, producing message digests... ============================= Archive contents ============================= Original Packed Ratio Date Time Name -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- ------------- 1775 950 46.4% 07-Sep-99 03:07:00 AmiSSL_info.readme 1550 863 44.3% 07-Sep-99 03:05:14 AmiSSL_info.txt -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- 3325 1813 45.4% 07-Sep-99 23:40:06 2 files
