<p class="MsoNormal">Hello,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am trying to use ECDHE and ECDSA on a simple openSSL application.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Here are the steps I did relevant to the problem at hand:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I generated the key and certificate with ECDSA.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Then I load the cert and the key with SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKeyFile<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I select the ciphers: SSL_CTX_set_cipher_list(ctx, “ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256”);<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">But when I try to connect, the server tells me no shared cipher.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I don’t know where this comes from. I am using TLSv1_2_method().<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Do I need to load some parameters like with PEM_read_bio_DHparams and SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh ?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">There is not much documentation on openSSL ECC<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you.<o:p></o:p></p>
