Hi,
I'am sure this is obvious to those who know but I am
awash in a sea new terminology.
Can the Plan9 libsec+tls negioate a secure channel without
any shared secrets, with say, Diffe Hellman key exchange?
I think this is a feature of TLS but I fear the code
doesn't exist for Plan9 - though the hooks are there.
Am I right or a meringue?
-Steve
