Hi,
I'm experiencing a problem when sniffing client and server communication in omniORB ssl examples (in ssl_echo directory). I'm able to read in clear text what is sent between them, using Ethereal.
I followed these steps:
- I've been able to build omniORB with ssl transport (To check that, when I uncomment ssl initialisations in client and server programs and run them, i get a warning telling me that SSL transport has been disabled because ssl certificates files weren't set).
- I run the server "eg2_impl" and then the client "eg2_clt" (with the IOR parameter) and everything works well
- But when I launch "ethereal" to sniff GIIOP packets, I'm able to read the clear text: "hello" that is sent between client and server.
I hoped not to be able to read what was sent between server and client, because I think it should be encrypted due to SSL transport.
Can somebody tell me something about that. Thanks for your quick reply.
Alain Patrick M.
