A.5.2 ssl hosts</a></h3><P CLASS="para">

deny</code> configuration options. For example:</p><PRE CLASS="programlisting">
[global]

This example specifies that all hosts that fall into the 192.168.220 subnet must use SSL connections with the client.

	ssl CA certFile = /usr/local/samba/cert/certFile</pre><P CLASS="para">

A.5.10 ssl require clientcert</a></h3><P CLASS="para">
This option specifies whether the client is required to have a certificate. The certificates listed with either the <CODE CLASS="literal">
ssl</code> <CODE CLASS="literal">
CA</code> <CODE CLASS="literal">
certDir</code> or the <CODE CLASS="literal">
ssl</code> <CODE CLASS="literal">

<A CLASS="title" NAME="appa-pgfId-990571">
A.5.11 ssl require servercert</a></h3><P CLASS="para">
This option specifies whether the server is required to have a certificate. Again, this will be used by the <I CLASS="filename">

<A CLASS="title" NAME="appa-pgfId-986095">
A.5.12 ssl ciphers</a></h3><P CLASS="para">
This option sets the ciphers on which SSL will decide during the negotiation phase of the SSL connection. Samba can use any of the following ciphers:</p><PRE CLASS="programlisting">

DES-CFB-M1
NULL-MD5
RC4-MD5
EXP-RC4-MD5
RC2-CBC-MD5
EXP-RC2-CBC-MD5
IDEA-CBC-MD5
DES-CBC-MD5
DES-CBC-SHA
DES-CBC3-MD5
DES-CBC3-SHA
RC4-64-MD5
NULL</pre><P CLASS="para">
It is best not to set this option unless you are familiar with the SSL protocol and want to mandate a specific cipher suite.</p></div><DIV CLASS="sect2">
<H3 CLASS="sect2">
<A CLASS="title" NAME="appa-pgfId-986097">
A.5.13 ssl version</a></h3><P CLASS="para">
This global option specifies the version of SSL that Samba will use when handling encrypted connections. The default value is <CODE CLASS="literal">
ssl2or3</code>, which specifies that either version 2 or 3 of the SSL protocol can be used, depending on which version is negotiated in the handshake between the server and the client. However, if you want Samba to use only a specific version of the protocol, you can specify the following:</p><PRE CLASS="programlisting">
[global]
	ssl version = ssl3</pre><P CLASS="para">
Again, it is best not to set this option unless you are familiar with the SSL protocol and want to mandate a specific version.</p></div><DIV CLASS="sect2">
<H3 CLASS="sect2">
<A CLASS="title" NAME="appa-pgfId-990580">
A.5.14 ssl compatibility</a></h3><P CLASS="para">
This global option specifies whether Samba should be configured to use other versions of SSL. However, because no other versions exist at this writing, the issue is  moot and the variable should always be left at the default.</p></div></div></blockquote>
