Description Nathan Kinder 2006-11-09 00:08:32 UTC
We need to make Directory Server support the following ciphers:

  TLS_ECDH_ECDSA_WITH_RC4_128_SHA
  TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_RC4_128_SHA
  SSL_RSA_WITH_RC4_128_SHA 

The version of NSS we use already has support for these ciphers, so all we
should need to do is add config name mappings for each of these.

Comment 2 Rich Megginson 2006-11-09 01:42:05 UTC
Ok.  Do we need to add these to admin server, or is that automatically handled
because we are using mod_nss?
Do we need to add these to the server config attribute
nsSSL3Ciphers: -rsa_null_md5,+rsa_rc4_128_md5,+rsa_rc4_40_md5,+rsa_rc2_40_md5,
 +rsa_des_sha,+rsa_fips_des_sha,+rsa_3des_sha,+rsa_fips_3des_sha,+fortezza,+f
 ortezza_rc4_128_sha,+fortezza_null,+tls_rsa_export1024_with_rc4_56_sha,+tls_
 rsa_export1024_with_des_cbc_sha


Comment 3 Rob Crittenden 2006-11-09 14:09:16 UTC
The ECC ciphers will be available in the admin server assuming that mod_nss was
built with --enable-ecc.

Once that is done all you'd need to do is add the ECC ciphers to the mod_nss
directive NSSCipherSuite and they should work.
