18 SSL Unit: tcp^ via SSL

The net/ssl-tcp-unit library provides a function for creating a tcp^ implementation with openssl functionality.

(make-ssl-tcp@	server-cert-file
	server-key-file
	server-root-cert-files
	server-suggest-auth-file
	client-cert-file
	client-key-file
	client-root-cert-files)	→	unit?

server-cert-file : (or/c path-string? false/c)

server-key-file : (or/c path-string? false/c)

server-root-cert-files : (or/c (listof path-string?) false/c)

server-suggest-auth-file : path-string?

client-cert-file : (or/c path-string? false/c)

client-key-file : (or/c path-string? false/c)

client-root-cert-files : (listof path-string?)

Returns a unit that implements tcp^ using the SSL functions from openssl. The arguments to make-ssl-tcp@ control the certificates and keys uses by server and client connections:

server-cert-file — a PEM file for a server’s certificate; #f means no certificate (which is unlikely to work with any SSL client)
server-key-file — a private key PEM to go with server-cert-file; #f means no key (which is likely renders a certificate useless)
server-root-cert-files — a list of PEM files for trusted root certificates; #f disables verification of peer client certificates
server-suggest-auth-file — PEM file for root certificates to be suggested to peer clients that must supply certificates
client-cert-file — a PEM file for a client’s certificate; #f means no certificate (which is usually fine)
client-key-file — a private key PEM to go with client-cert-file; #f means no key (which is likely renders a certificate useless)
client-root-cert-files — a list of PEM files for trusted root certificates; #f disables verification of peer server certificates
