Re: RPG SSL Sockets

[Scott Klement <midrange-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Here's some acticles I wrote on SSL from RPG, quite a while back, but I 
don't think anything has changed:

I typically let the OS choose which version of SSL/TLS it uses. That 
way, as vulnerabilities are found in stuff like SSL 3.0, IBM will 
disable them in the OS, and we don't have to modify the application. 
Likewise, as newer versions are added to the OS (TLS 1.1, TLS 1.2, etc) 
it can pick those up automatically.
