Weak Security Ciphers

[noufel]

Hi All

Need some help on testing if a server supports weak ciphers .

Here is the command I ran :

openssl s_client -connect HOSTNAME:443 -cipher LOW:EXP

result :
connect: Connection timed out
connect:errno=110

openssl s_client -connect HOSTNAME:8000 -cipher LOW:EXP
result :
Connected : err num=104

Should I understand that the host does not support weak ciphers with above result.


Now wanted to check whats the level of security and does it support high ciphers

openssl s_client -connect HOSTNAME:8000 -cipher HIGH:EXP
result :
Connected : err num=110

How do I check what is level of security ?
What is the keylength?

Appreciate if the response is quick.

Cheers

As mentioned by you that you are getting then errno10 then this is when pidgin doesn't share any package and to solve it try and use and other client and if still the same response then you can’t do anything since it may be the server side problem. Well and the error n umber 104 is nothing but when the system is unable to connect the server so here you have to just perform the connection test that will confirm whether there is any issue with the connection that you have made.
