SSL repeater and encryption

Post by TeddyBeer »

:surprise: it's all the day i try to set up the
ssl_viewer <--> ... <--> ssl_repeater <--> ... <--> SCIII
system and finally i got a working loopback connection (i've tried with server, repeater and viewer on the same machine for test purpose, according to this post [topic=3217][/topic]!)

ok... so i tried to move the mouse, file tranfert panel, and finally chat... everything work but, surprise: in the first row of the windows's chat i get this message:

"WARNING: By default, this session do not use any encryption whatsoever. Please do not use it to send sensitive data unless you are sure your connection is secure."
:o

i made an error in one configuration? :P is only an wrong issue hardcoed in the SC? :roll:
or simply i get this message because SC don't use the plugin? but the data are encrypted or not? (i'm too lazy to to setup a network sniffer and verify! :oops: )
i've searched in the forum but it not seem to be a known issue!

for help i post my configs file and log

HOST CONFIG IN HELPDESK.TXT (i used it just putting it in the same dir of winvncSCIII.exe)

Code: Select all

-id 12345 -sslproxy -connect localhost:443 -noregistry
CONFIG OF VNCVIEWER_SSL.exe
VNC server ID:12345
proxy/repeater localhost:443

SSL_REPEATER.exe settings
accept port: 5901
listen port: 5500 (enabled)

the log of SSL_REPEATER untile connection (certificate.pem is the original one!):

Code: Select all

...
0
socket() initialized
bind() succeded to port 5901
SSL initialized 
SSL loading CERTIFICATE.PEM 
listen() succeded
SSL listener started on port = 443 
socket() initialized
bind() succeded to port 5500
listen() succeded
Incoming Viewer (SSL client) 
accept() connection 
Viewer added to list 12345
Incoming Server (SSL client) 
Server added to list 12345
any ideas?
thanks in advance! 8)
