-easy_tls - generic SSL/TLS proxy
-========
-
-(... and example for non-blocking SSL/TLS I/O multiplexing.)
-
-
- easy_tls.c, easy_tls.h:
-
- Small generic SSL/TLS proxy library: With a few function calls,
- an application socket will be replaced by a pipe handled by a
- separate SSL/TLS proxy process. This allows easily adding
- SSL/TLS support to many programs not originally designed for it.
-
- [Actually easy_tls.c is not a proper library: Customization
- requires defining preprocessor macros while compiling it.
- This is quite confusing, so I'll probably change it.]
-
- These files may be used under the OpenSSL license.
-
-
-
- test.c, test.h, Makefile, cert.pem, cacerts.pem:
-
- Rudimentary example program using the easy_tls library, and
- example key and certificates for it. Usage examples:
-
- $ ./test 8443 # create server listening at port 8443
- $ ./test 127.0.0.1 8443 # create client, connect to port 8443
- # at IP address 127.0.0.1
-
- 'test' will not automatically do SSL/TLS, or even read or write
- data -- it must be told to do so on input lines starting
- with a command letter. 'W' means write a line, 'R' means
- read a line, 'C' means close the connection, 'T' means
- start an SSL/TLS proxy. E.g. (user input tagged with '*'):
-
- * R
- <<< 220 mail.example.net
- * WSTARTTLS
- >>> STARTTLS
- * R
- <<< 220 Ready to start TLS
- * T
- test_process_init(fd = 3, client_p = 1, apparg = (nil))
- +++ `E:self signed certificate in certificate chain'
- +++ `<... certificate info ...>'
- * WHELO localhost
- >>> HELO localhost
- R
- <<< 250 mail.example.net
-
- You can even do SSL/TLS over SSL/TLS over SSL/TLS ... by using
- 'T' multiple times. I have no idea why you would want to though.
-
-
-This code is rather old. When I find time I will update anything that
-should be changed, and improve code comments. To compile the sample
-program 'test' on platforms other then Linux or Solaris, you will have
-to edit the Makefile.
-
-As noted above, easy_tls.c will be changed to become a library one
-day, which means that future revisions will not be fully compatible to
-the current version.
