req - Manipulate PKCS#10 certificate requests and also
generate certificate requests.
genrsa - Generates an arbitrary sized RSA private key.
+ gendsa - Generates DSA parameters.
gendh - Generates a set of Diffie-Hellman parameters, the prime
will be a strong prime.
ca - Create certificates from PKCS#10 certificate requests.
This program also maintains a database of certificates
issued.
verify - Check x509 certificate signatures.
- speed - Benchmark SSLeay's ciphers.
+ speed - Benchmark OpenSSL's ciphers.
s_server- A test SSL server.
s_client- A test SSL client.
s_time - Benchmark SSL performance of SSL server programs.
- errstr - Convert from SSLeay hex error codes to a readable form.
+ errstr - Convert from OpenSSL hex error codes to a readable form.
+ nseq - Netscape certificate sequence utility
To install this package, read the INSTALL file.
For the Microsoft world, read INSTALL.W32 file.
-For people in the USA, it is possible to compile SSLeay to use RSA Inc.'s
-public key library, RSAref. From my understanding, it is claimed by RSA Inc.
-to be illegal to use my public key routines inside the USA. Read
-doc/rsaref.doc on how to build with RSAref.

Read the documentation in the doc directory. It is quite rough, but it lists
