AmiSSL under WinUAE

[Holley]

Does anyone know a way to get AmiSSL working, at the mo it tries to refer to AmiTCP for verification (which obviously isn't there).

It's nothing that can't be worked around, but it's bugging me :-(

I'm using the BSD socket emulation, so IP just works on a passthrough (which AmiSSL is unaware of).  I figured I could try installing a TCP stack and bodge/fool it, but they all seem to look for a Sana2 device :-(

Thanks Thomas :-) (maybe time to change your handle to 'The Opus of Emulation' :-D)

Yeah, I was just trying to be more dramatic :-D

Assigning AmiSSL hasn't helped as it's looking for it to do something, rather than just checking it exists.  I recon this might be a non-starter, as the BSD socket emulation is unknown to anything within UAE.

Only thing would be if someone knows AmiSSL configuration well enough to make it become UAE-aware (if you get what I mean).

Like I said, nothing that can't be worked around :-)

This is running through BSD Socket emulation, which is a passthrough to Windows networking.  If I try Genesis it asks for either a modem or Sana2 network device - using a modem you're essentially using the serial port 'raw' so you have a proper Amiga internet connection, whereas the BSD sockets don't really exist :-(

Hi Thomas, that sentence means that it might not be possible with current software (nothing to do with your experience, lol :-D).  I have AmiSSL 1 installed, when I go to a secure site (with or without an assign) it asks for AmiTCP in an endless loop, occationally saying the server could not be verified (then back to the loop).

Maybe the site I try has a newer kind of security that SSL 1 doesn't understand or something ...

ok, thanks guys :-)

I think it might be an old file floating around from when I tried to put on SSL 2, I've checked the Assign entries for both AmiTCP and AmiSSL, and they look ok ... anyone know if SSL2 puts something into C or Libs or somewhere that 1 wouldn't have overwritten (I just removed the drawer and assign to remove it before).
