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...

NAME

       SSL_set_session - set a TLS/SSL session to be used during TLS/SSL connect

SYNOPSIS

	#include <openssl/ssl.h>

	int SSL_set_session(SSL *ssl, SSL_SESSION *session);

DESCRIPTION

       SSL_set_session() sets session to be used when the TLS/SSL connection is to be established. SSL_set_session() is only useful for TLS/SSL
       clients.  When the session is set, the reference count of session is incremented by 1. If the session is not reused, the reference count is
       decremented again during SSL_connect(). Whether the session was reused can be queried with the SSL_session_reused(3) call.

       If there is already a session set inside ssl (because it was set with SSL_set_session() before or because the same ssl was already used for
       a connection), SSL_SESSION_free() will be called for that session.

NOTES

       SSL_SESSION objects keep internal link information about the session cache list, when being inserted into one SSL_CTX object's session
       cache.  One SSL_SESSION object, regardless of its reference count, must therefore only be used with one SSL_CTX object (and the SSL objects
       created from this SSL_CTX object).

RETURN VALUES

       The following return values can occur:

       0   The operation failed; check the error stack to find out the reason.

       1   The operation succeeded.
