An important issue to me is the module's API. Currently (correct me if I'm wrong), there's only one script using the openssl module, SSH-hostkey.nse, and it only uses the bignum functions. I want to have more assurance that all parts of the module are useful to script programmers, and are easy to use. You sound like you have definite ideas for using the new hash and crypto functions? I wonder, would you mind implementing some of them using a checkout of the nse_openssl branch? Maybe one or two small functions you have in mind. Then write back to the list with any suggestions you may have for changing the API. Once we merge the library we're making a pretty firm commitment to the API. I want it to have been tested against some real script development. It's especially important because I think Sven's module will be useful for a lot of scripts. David FifieldSure, I'll give it a go. Just one question, though -- how do I check out that branch? My SVN skills are weak, and Google is failing me.
No problem. svn checkout --username=guest --password="" svn://svn.insecure.org/nmap-exp/sven/nse_openssl David Fifield _______________________________________________ Sent through the nmap-dev mailing list http://cgi.insecure.org/mailman/listinfo/nmap-dev Archived at http://SecLists.Org
