OpenSSL 0.9.8j (Default branch)

The OpenSSL Project is a collaborative effort todevelop a robust, commercial-grade, fullyfeatured, and Open Source toolkit implementing theSecure Sockets Layer (SSL v2/v3) and TransportLayer Security (TLS v1) as well as a full-strengthgeneral-purpose cryptography library.License: OSI ApprovedChanges:
Several incorrect checks, allowing a malformed signature to be treated as a good signature rather than as an error, were fixed. This vulnerability was reported as CVE-2008-5077. Experimental JPAKE support was implemented. Support for XMPP STARTTLS was added in s_client. Several other minor changes were made.

Using openssl

All, I am new to openssl and I have not been able to figure out exactly how to use it. What I need to do is to create a shell script which FTPS's (SFTP is not allowed on my project) a file to a mainframe. The mainframe will not initiate a session with my server. Question. Are the packages...

SSL_set_fd(3openssl)						      OpenSSL						      SSL_set_fd(3openssl)

NAME

       SSL_set_fd - connect the SSL object with a file descriptor

SYNOPSIS

	#include <openssl/ssl.h>

	int SSL_set_fd(SSL *ssl, int fd);
	int SSL_set_rfd(SSL *ssl, int fd);
	int SSL_set_wfd(SSL *ssl, int fd);

DESCRIPTION

       SSL_set_fd() sets the file descriptor fd as the input/output facility for the TLS/SSL (encrypted) side of ssl. fd will typically be the
       socket file descriptor of a network connection.

       When performing the operation, a socket BIO is automatically created to interface between the ssl and fd. The BIO and hence the SSL engine
       inherit the behaviour of fd. If fd is non-blocking, the ssl will also have non-blocking behaviour.

       If there was already a BIO connected to ssl, BIO_free() will be called (for both the reading and writing side, if different).

       SSL_set_rfd() and SSL_set_wfd() perform the respective action, but only for the read channel or the write channel, which can be set inde-
       pendently.

RETURN VALUES

       The following return values can occur:

       0   The operation failed. Check the error stack to find out why.

       1   The operation succeeded.
