- OpenSSL 1.0.2k 26 Jan 2017
-
- Copyright (c) 1998-2015 The OpenSSL Project
- Copyright (c) 1995-1998 Eric A. Young, Tim J. Hudson
- All rights reserved.
-
- DESCRIPTION
- -----------
-
- The OpenSSL Project is a collaborative effort to develop a robust,
- commercial-grade, fully featured, and Open Source toolkit implementing the
- Secure Sockets Layer (SSLv3) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocols as
- well as a full-strength general purpose cryptograpic library. The project is
- managed by a worldwide community of volunteers that use the Internet to
- communicate, plan, and develop the OpenSSL toolkit and its related
- documentation.
-
- OpenSSL is descended from the SSLeay library developed by Eric A. Young
- and Tim J. Hudson. The OpenSSL toolkit is licensed under a dual-license (the
- OpenSSL license plus the SSLeay license), which means that you are free to
- get and use it for commercial and non-commercial purposes as long as you
- fulfill the conditions of both licenses.
-
- OVERVIEW
- --------
-
- The OpenSSL toolkit includes:
-
- libssl.a:
- Provides the client and server-side implementations for SSLv3 and TLS.
-
- libcrypto.a:
- Provides general cryptographic and X.509 support needed by SSL/TLS but
- not logically part of it.
-
- openssl:
- A command line tool that can be used for:
- Creation of key parameters
- Creation of X.509 certificates, CSRs and CRLs
- Calculation of message digests
- Encryption and decryption
- SSL/TLS client and server tests
- Handling of S/MIME signed or encrypted mail
- And more...
-
- INSTALLATION
- ------------
-
- See the appropriate file:
- INSTALL Linux, Unix, etc.
- INSTALL.DJGPP DOS platform with DJGPP
- INSTALL.NW Netware
- INSTALL.OS2 OS/2
- INSTALL.VMS VMS
- INSTALL.W32 Windows (32bit)
- INSTALL.W64 Windows (64bit)
- INSTALL.WCE Windows CE
-
- SUPPORT
- -------
-
- See the OpenSSL website www.openssl.org for details on how to obtain
- commercial technical support.
-
- If you have any problems with OpenSSL then please take the following steps
- first:
-
- - Download the latest version from the repository
- to see if the problem has already been addressed
- - Configure with no-asm
- - Remove compiler optimisation flags
-
- If you wish to report a bug then please include the following information
- and create an issue on GitHub:
-
- - On Unix systems:
- Self-test report generated by 'make report'
- - On other systems:
- OpenSSL version: output of 'openssl version -a'
- OS Name, Version, Hardware platform
- Compiler Details (name, version)
- - Application Details (name, version)
- - Problem Description (steps that will reproduce the problem, if known)
- - Stack Traceback (if the application dumps core)
-
- Just because something doesn't work the way you expect does not mean it
- is necessarily a bug in OpenSSL.

- LEGALITIES
- ----------
-
- A number of nations restrict the use or export of cryptography. If you
- are potentially subject to such restrictions you should seek competent
- professional legal advice before attempting to develop or distribute
- cryptographic code.
