63 | .Fn SXNET_new | ||
64 | allocates and initializes an empty | ||
65 | .Vt SXNET | ||
66 | object representing a non-standard proprietary Thawte strong extranet | ||
67 | X.509 extension. | ||
68 | .Fn SXNET_free | ||
69 | frees | ||
70 | .Fa sxnet . | ||
71 | .Pp | ||
72 | .Fn SXNETID_new | ||
73 | allocates and initializes an empty | ||
74 | .Vt SXNETID | ||
75 | object. | ||
76 | It is used inside | ||
77 | .Vt SXNET . | ||
78 | .Fn SXNETID_free | ||
79 | frees | ||
80 | .Fa sxnetid . | ||
81 | .Pp | ||
82 | The remaining functions decode and encode these objects | ||
83 | using DER format. | ||

120 | .Sh HISTORY | ||
121 | These functions first appeared in OpenSSL 0.9.3 | ||
122 | and have been available since | ||
123 | .Ox 2.6 . | ||
124 | .Sh BUGS | ||
125 | This manual page does not explain what the extension actually does | ||
126 | because no authoritative information was found online so far. | ||
127 | .Pp | ||
128 | The only hint was found in an ancient white paper "Securing IBM | ||
129 | Applications with Public Key Infrastructure" on the IBM website, | ||
130 | dated June 13, 2001: "Thawte also has a technology called Strong | ||
131 | Extranet that allows institutions to encode customer information | ||
132 | in the extensions to their customer's certificates. | ||
133 | Because multiple institutions can add information, the user needs | ||
134 | only one certificate, making renewal and revocation simpler, although | ||
135 | the issue of modifying an extension to an existing certificate is | ||
136 | not addressed." | ||
137 | .Pp | ||
138 | It is unclear whether that explanation is accurate, but in any case, | ||
139 | it is not very specific. | ||
