SSL?

Submitted by Anonymous on Thu, 09/30/2004 - 20:04

Ok what is required for SSL?

I already have TKabber complies and openssl installed but seem unable to make any SSL connections.

set loginconf2(usessl) 1
set loginconfs(sslport) 5223

Is set in my config.tcl and there is no ssl (grey or red) on my client.

Am I missing something?

CVS - TKabber 0.7.9-alpha-20040710

no errors on compile....

:(

Activate SSL

Submitted by badlop on Fri, 10/01/2004 - 07:52.

You need TLS package for Tcl/Tk. There is no tutorial right now at the Tkabber Book for this, maybe it's time to write one. To check if you have TLS correctly installed: open a command line window and type this:

$ tclsh
% package require tls
1.50
% exit

If you have TLS installed, then you can activate option 'usessl' in Tkabber. There are three possible ways:

  • On the Login window, go to the SSL tab and activate 'Use SSL'. This will not be saved in preferences.
  • Open Tkabber, open the Customize window, section 'Login', check the '::::loginconf(usessl):' option and save the changes.
  • In your $HOME/.tkabber/config.tcl put this:

    hook::add finload_hook {
  set ::loginconf(usessl) 1
}

Let's hope you can enable SSL with this help.
