Mark Murray 2d686b6259 SSLeay version 0.6.2.
This implementation has been built with Our ((actually its own but in our
source tree) DES library and our MD{45}. You will need to link your SSL
code with -ldes and -lmd.

Are you happy now, Torsten? ;-)

This is Eric Young's SSL and Crypto library. It includes
libssl.a:
An implementation of Netscapes SSL v 2 protocol. This library
implements the SSL protocol.
libcrypto.a:
General encryption and X509 stuff needed by SSL but not
actually logically part of it. It includes routines for the following:
RC4 encryption,
IDEA encryption - 4 different modes, ecb, cbc, cfb and ofb.
SHA (SHA-0) and SHA-1 message digest algorithms,
RSA encryption/decryption/key generation. There is no limit
on the number of bits.
Diffie-Hellman key-exchange/key generation. There is no limit
on the number of bits.
X509 encoding/decoding into/from binary ASN1 and a
PEM based ascii-binary encoding which supports encryption with
a private key.
(The DES routines, while a part if this source distribution
are not included in the compiled package, as they are part
of the base FreeBSD secure/ distribution)
(MD2 and MD5 are also not compiled as FreeBSD has its own).
