Bug #2342: Missing ssl CLIENT functions

From: lorenzo@sancho.ccd.uniroma2.it Operating system: Linux PHP version: 3.0.12 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: Missing ssl CLIENT functions As anybody doing service management work today, I've encountered a lot of good php stuff out on the net; still, there are many things which would get A LOT better if there were a php module wrapping openSSL: as a matter of facts, whith such a module we would get: Private Key crypto (somewhat redundant, since there is mcrypt avalable); Public Key crypto (unavailable in php by now); TLS tunneling of services like IMAP or LDAP, which would in turn make stuff like <a href="http://www.horde.org/imp/">IMP</a> or the LDAP access page available at <a href="http://www.mixdown.org/ldap">LDAP Entry Form</a> (<a href="http://www.mixdown.org/ldap/ldap.phps">for source</a> much more useful even in an open environment. As a matter of facts, I'm sending this feature "request" after having been prompted by one of the horde developers, whom I contacted privately, with a suggestion to add imaps capability to IMP. Now, I think I bothered all of you enough, therefore all I should do is cheer, and say thank you and good bye! Yours, lmc
