DESCRIPTION
-----------
The Opentls Project is a collaborative effort to develop a robust,
commercial-grade, fully featured, and Open Source toolkit implementing the
Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocols (including tlsv3) as well as a
full-strength general purpose cryptographic library.
Opentls is descended from the tlseay library developed by Eric A. Young
and Tim J. Hudson.
The Opentls toolkit is licensed under the Apache License 2.0, which means
that you are free to get and use it for commercial and non-commercial
purposes as long as you fulfill its conditions.
OVERVIEW
--------
The Opentls toolkit includes:
libtls (with platform specific naming):
Provides the client and server-side implementations for tlsv3 and TLS.
libcrypto (with platform specific naming):
Provides general cryptographic and X.509 support needed by tls/TLS but
not logically part of it.
opentls:
A command line tool that can be used for:
Creation of key parameters
Creation of X.509 certificates, CSRs and CRLs
Calculation of message digests
Encryption and decryption
tls/TLS client and server tests
Handling of S/MIME signed or encrypted mail
And more...
INSTALLATION
------------
See the appropriate file:
INSTALL Linux, Unix, Windows, OpenVMS, ...
NOTES.* INSTALL addendums for different platforms
SUPPORT
-------
See the Opentls website www.opentls.org for details on how to obtain
commercial technical support. Free community support is available through the
opentls-users email list (see
https://www.opentls.org/community/mailinglists.html for further details).
If you have any problems with Opentls then please take the following steps
first:
- Download the latest version from the repository
to see if the problem has already been addressed
- Configure with no-asm
- Remove compiler optimization flags
If you wish to report a bug then please include the following information
and create an issue on GitHub:
- Opentls version: output of 'opentls version -a'
- Configuration data: output of 'perl configdata.pm --dump'
- OS Name, Version, Hardware platform
- Compiler Details (name, version)
- Application Details (name, version)
- Problem Description (steps that will reproduce the problem, if known)
- Stack Traceback (if the application dumps core)
Just because something doesn't work the way you expect does not mean it
is necessarily a bug in Opentls. Use the opentls-users email list for this type
of query.

LEGALITIES
----------
A number of nations restrict the use or export of cryptography. If you
are potentially subject to such restrictions you should seek competent
professional legal advice before attempting to develop or distribute
cryptographic code.
