encryption, tls 1,2 etc

Post by psychonaut » Fri Oct 09, 2015 8:24 pm

hi i hope you are all well.

i am new to softether, ive switched this evening from drayteks horrific vpn solution.

i need a bit of help.

1)i need to make sure that we can implement tls v1.2 but cant find any way to do this
2) can i rate limit the number of password guesses on the connection
3) i have edited the server config file to not use ssl, but how can i tell if i really am using ssl or tls on the connection?
4) what encrytpion type would you recomend (im currently using AES256-SHA and its fast enough on the connection...is it good enough or is there a better option?)

bear in mind i am new to this so i need full instructions as to where to look on the (quite complicated) gui.

thanks in advance.

Now you can build your own VPN Server with TLSv1.2 enabled referring to this PR on github.

May I clarify what the patch does.

What the patch does is allow you to disable any version of SSL/TLS as you wish.

Previously, when "AcceptOnlyTls" was set to False, you could connect using TLS 1.2, but when it is set to True, you could only connect using TLS 1.0.
