[Ace-users] [tao-users] TAO 1.3 SSL/Name Service

[Harry Harcrow]

I need to clarify the description of the problem.  I did go back and issue a
realclean and rebuilt the 1.3 libraries.  The issue is accessing the
NameService using corbaloc.  I use the following string:

 

-ORBInitRef NameService=corbaloc:ssliop:hostname:sslport/NameService 

 

When I run my server or even the nslist utility I receive a BAD_PARAM error.
If I use the following string:

-ORBInitRef NameService=file:ssliop:ns.ior

 

Then everything works fine.

 

We are planning to upgrade later in the year, but have a requirement to
start using SSL for our communications, so we want a quicker solution and
was hoping to just recompile the SSL libs and run our servers basically as
we did.  

 

Really, my question is does the corbaloc URL method not work with SSL in
version 1.3?

 

Thank you for your help

Hi,

 

So far as I remember SSLIOP got added as part of TAO 1.2, so 1.3 should have
it supported but maybe there is a bug, a lot has been changed after 1.3. If
you need to stay with 1.3 run the client/server with ORBDebugLevel 10 and
see what it outputs

Is SSLIOP supported by the Naming Service in TAO 1.3?

  

TAO VERSION: 1.3

    ACE VERSION: 5.3

 

    HOST MACHINE and OPERATING SYSTEM:

      TRU-64 Unix V5.1

 

    TARGET MACHINE and OPERATING SYSTEM, if different from HOST:

    COMPILER NAME AND VERSION (AND PATCHLEVEL):

      CXX V6.3-008

 

    AREA/CLASS/EXAMPLE AFFECTED:

            Naming Service

    DOES THE PROBLEM AFFECT:

        COMPILATION?

        LINKING?

            On Unix systems, did you run make realclean first?

            YES

        EXECUTION?

        OTHER (please specify)?

            Naming Service

    SYNOPSIS:

            Issue involves running CORBA servers/clients with SSLIOP plugins
and using Naming Service

 

 

    DESCRIPTION:

            Would like to incorporate use of the SSLIOP pluggable protocol
without having to upgrade to TAO 1.4.  I have run the code examples
successfully using IOR files, but cannot get SSLIOP protocol to work with
Naming Service.  I have installed/compiled TAO 1.4 and have successfully run
examples using IOR files and the Naming Service.  I have also incorporated
this into some of my client/server code and everything works fine.  However,
my requirement is for this to work with TAO 1.3

 

    REPEAT BY:

 

    SAMPLE FIX/WORKAROUND:

 

Thanks

Harry Harcrow
