Summary0002822: Support DSA (or DSA+RSA) certificates/keyfiles
DescriptionI recently setup some DSA keys instead of the usual RSA keys
on a newly installed FreeBSD machine. The DSA keys refused to work
and the SSL port wouldn't send anything out when you connected to it.

I repeated this on 3.2.3 aswell, since I tried the ports install.

I compiled in SSL, zlib.
Steps To ReproduceSet yourself up as a CA.

openssl dsaparam -out /tmp/dsaparam -genkey 2048
openssl gendsa -out /tmp/dsa.key /tmp/dsaparam
openssl req -config /home/ultraviolet/CA/cnf/openssl.cnf -new -key /tmp/dsa.key -out /tmp/dsa.csr
openssl ca -config /home/ultraviolet/CA/cnf/openssl.cnf -in /tmp/dsa.csr -keyfile /home/ultraviolet/CA/keys/ca.key -cert /home/ultraviolet/CA/certs/ca.crt -out /tmp/dsa.crt

And use the dsa.(crt|key) files.

i'm sure it says somewhere that unreal only supports RSA keys

I'm keeping it in the bugtracker and not rejecting it, if that's what you mean. No you won't get an ETA.. at all.. :P.

For takers:

DHparams are needed it seems:
SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh() to enable the DH cipher suites - loading DH parameters.. Seems like it is the only thing needed to implement DSA connections.

Implemented in .2407, with PEM files - please check if this works.
