Short:        Information on AmiSSL, SSL package for Amiga
Author:       Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony@bigfoot.com>
Uploader:     Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony bigfoot com>
Type:         comm/net
Requires:     Any AmiTCP-alike TCP/IP stack
Architecture: m68k-amigaos

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...
