GnuTLS is a portable ANSI C based library which implements the TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0 protocols. The library does not include any patented algorithms and is available under the GNU Lesser GPL license. Important features of the GnuTLS library include: - Thread safety - Support for both TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0 protocols - Support for both X.509 and OpenPGP certificates - Support for basic parsing and verification of certificates - Support for SRP for TLS authentication - Support for TLS Extension mechanism - Support for TLS Compression Methods Additionaly GnuTLS provides an emulation API for the widely used OpenSSL library, to ease integration with existing applications. Package provided by Juan RP via pkgsrc-wip with modifications by me.
