Dear Pros,
On one of the systems that I use on my ISP's network, I'm having a
problem logging into my account at wsj.com via the https-savvy form.
Let me provide some background.
One is running a Linux OS (this is the system that fails to make the
connection properly):
Linux chishio 2.4.29-rc1 #1 SMP Fri Jan 7 16:41:59 MST 2005 i686 GNU/Linux
with lynx version (as reported from https://www.gnutls.org:5555/):
gnutls is reported to be rather buggy
(I've only tested it lightly, but recall reading bug reports).
Client's browser version: Lynx/2.8.5rel.1 libwww-FM/2.14 SSL-MM/1.4.1
GNUTLS/1.0.16
Cipher key size: 128
the other is SunOS:
SunOS yagi 5.8 Generic_108528-10 sun4u sparc SUNW,UltraSPARC-IIi-Engine
Client's browser version: Lynx/2.8.4rel.1 libwww-FM/2.14 SSL-MM/1.4.1
OpenSSL/0.9.4
You can build with OpenSSL on Linux also. There's no technical reason
for preferring gnutls over OpenSSL.
