Re: [Pound Mailing List] Disable SSLv3

Hi,

Pound uses OpenSSL for SSL/TLS. That means all the available features
depend on your OpenSSL installation.

There is a directive "Ciphers" for defining custom cipher lists in the
Pound configuration file (see Pound manual page). It expects a regular
OpenSSL cipher list. A leading exclamation mark excludes a cipher. For
Example:

    Ciphers "ALL:!SSLv2"

You can use OpenSSL to test and check cipher lists. The command "openssl
ciphers -v 'ALL:!SSLv2'" is a good starting point ... take a look at the
manual page (man ciphers) or search Google for OpenSSL cipher lists.

Hope this helps :-)

Kind regards,
Leo
