| 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 | ||

| 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. | ||
