  1. I already have a TSslWSocketServer listening on port NNNN and successfully accepts TSSLWSocket client connections. All this happens within the context of my Delphi Applications. Now I need to provide an API in my application. I want to use the existing TSslWSocketServer to listen to any REST calls also. REST call comes in successfully and I can read the content in DataAvailable Event too. My problem is that I cannot send back any message to the REST Client. I am using (Sender as TClientConnection).SendStr('Hi') but it does not reach the REST Client. I know this is not the appropriate way but I just need to send some indication that message has been received.
  2. Hi Angus, My REST Client request is Secured TLS. Also (Sender as TClientConnection).SendStr('Hi') wherein Type TClientConnection = class(TSSLWSocketClient) It is essential that I use Secured Layer only.
  3. On Server Side I have been successfully using TSslFtpServer (Delphi Seattle) with IcsHosts for SSL From Client Side I PUT a File , Check Size after Copy & Finally Rename the File. All this has worked fine for years. My Server Side Exe was 32 Bit. Now I want to make it 64Bit Exe. From Client side Copy takes place , Size checking takes place but Rename does not happen. I get the error 450 File '/c:/Sample/Abc.txt' can't be renamed 64 Bit works fine without SSL
  4. I did changes as you mentioned and it is working now. Thank You. unit OverbyteIcsFtpSrv; ... ... function DirExists(const Dir : String) : Boolean; { V1.52 AG} { INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE = INVALID_FILE_ATTRIBUTES = DWORD(-1) } {$IFDEF MSWINDOWS} var Res : DWORD; begin Result := {$IFDEF RTL_NAMESPACES}System.{$ENDIF}SysUtils.DirectoryExists(UnicodeString(Dir)); exit ; // Res := GetFileAttributes(PChar(Dir)); // Result := (Res <> INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE) and // ((Res and FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTORY) <> 0); end; {$ENDIF} {$IFDEF POSIX} begin Result := System.SysUtils.DirectoryExists(Dir); { V8.50 } end; {$ENDIF}
  5. The function returns True even though pointing to a files that does not exist function DirExists(const Dir : String) : Boolean; // Dir = 'c:\23000\Pqr.txt' var Res : DWORD; begin Res := GetFileAttributes(PChar(Dir)); // Res = 4294967295 Result := (Res <> INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE) and ((Res and FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTORY) <> 0); // Res and FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTORY = 16 // (Res <> INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE) and ((Res and FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTORY) <> 0) // Though having the same value this line return True in 64Bitness and False in 32Bitness end; procedure TFtpServer.CommandRNTO( ... if FileExists(FileName) or DirExists(Filename) then Answer = '553 ''/c:/23000/Pqr.txt'': file already exists.'
  6. Hi, I am using ICS Components with Delphi Seattle to send text between Server to Client and vice versa. But when using higher values like Chr(65470) the transfer does not happen correctly. Server Side: TSslWSocketServer Client : TClientConnection; Client.SendText('Hi '+Chr(65445)+Chr(65470)+#13#10); Client Side: TSSLWSocket procedure Tform_ClientSocket.SockClient_SsrvClientDataAvailable(Sender: TObject; ErrCode: Word); var FRcvdLine:WideString ; // AnsiString does not work either begin FRcvdLine := TSSLWSocket(Sender).ReceiveStrA ; Hi ?? Regards Allan
  7. Since my application is already in use at few customer's installations and is running smoothly, I did not have the courage to make major changes. It is actually the user passwords that I is saved in my databases with some basic encryption that were giving this problem. Putting both your valuable advice together I did make a routine that goes thru the String prior to the Send operation, character by character and recognizes Ord(...) > 65375. I am now converting that Password into Simple text and upon reaching destination reversing it again. Since my String's are made of a Tagged parts it is simple to extract the problem areas. Thank You for the support.
  8. In this way I can't seem to capture from the Client side using below method. Will the Client side code be different too ? FRcvdLine := TSSLWSocket(Sender).ReceiveStr ;
  9. Hi, I am using TSslWSocket (TSslContext) to connect to TSslWSocketServer (using IcsHosts) Is it possible to avoid TSslContext on Client Side too ? I am asking because the Client side loses out some data initially upon just connecting. Without SSL same code work fine. I tried to prepare a small sample but that works fine with SSL too. I am using Delphi Seattle on Windows 10, Single machine, Two Exe's (Server and Client) for testing Regards Allan
  10. My mistake was that I was sending first message to the Client from within the TSslWSocketServer.DataAvailable event. Took that off and it is now working perfectly.
  11. Hi I am currently using TSslFtpServer and TSslWSocketServer in combination with SslContext but there are connection issues coming up recently with Failed SSL Handshake before negotiation. Instead of chasing that I want to update to the current technique of using ICSHosts. Here I am stuck when trying to connect with FileZilla Client my Server comes into ClientConnect Event and then in ClientCommand Keyword is empty and then control goes to ClientDisconnect. Does not go into Validation etc. The problem is that there is no example using ICSHosts, so I used the OverbyteIcsSslFtpServ example removing the SslContext and adding a Item in IcsHosts Kindly note that mine is an application wherein I have a Server module running on one machine and I have several machines connecting to the Server There is no Website I can validate 'HostNames.Strings' with, so hope machine name will do ? DFM section of TSslFtpServer IcsHosts = < item HostNames.Strings = ('VMAF') HostEnabled = True HostTag = 'MyTag' SslCert = '01cert.pem' SslKey = '01key.pem' SslInter = 'cacert.pem' end> since 01cert.pem etc. are not working here I made fresh Certificates which I tested and are working with the SslContext. Regards Allan
  12. In my Service I want to to receive notification when the system is suspended or resumed (Hibernate/Sleep) so that I can Close Active Sockets connections. Similar questions have got the answer 'the service must use a HandlerEx() callback via RegisterServiceCtrlHandlerEx()' but I have not been able to use it in Delphi. Need more assistance please.
  13. >> I'll email my unit that does all this. I looked at all the options suggested by Angus and Remy. Then I implemented the emailed Pas files and tested it with all possible options I could manage. Was most simple to include in my program and works perfectly fine. Very grateful to both for pulling me out of this one too.
  14. I have already tried the WM_POWERBROADCAST for GUID_MONITOR_POWER_ON with this I get notified even if display is begin turned off.
  15. I am using ICS TSslFTPServer (FtpSslType=ftpAuthTls,ftpAuthSsl) and TSslWSocketServer (SslEnable=True) on my Server side application along with TSslContext wherein I am pointing to SslPrivKeyFile and SslCertFile to your sample 01key.pem and 01cert.pem respectively. My Client Application connects and all is well. problem-1) If I try to change the certificates to another of your provided examples or If I build with OpenSSL it gives error 'Can't read certificate file ... error:0909006C:PEM routines:get_name:no start line' problem-2) Using SSL I lose compatibility with WinXP and probably with Vista too. Is there a workaround ? (Angus has suggested me to use the IcsHosts property instead of SslContext but I will need to do more work to get it working for me, hope I am using above mentioned components properly to begin with SSL) (How I generated my own PEM files openssl genpkey -aes256 -algorithm RSA -pkeyopt rsa_keygen_bits:2048 -out 01key.pem openssl pkey -in 01key.pem -out 01cert.pem -pubout)

    Only default ICS sample SSL certificate is working

    With OverbyteIcsPemTool.exe Menu item Create a self-signed certificate.

    Only default ICS sample SSL certificate is working

    I did create the PEM files and they are working fine but comments says they will expire by 20/01/2020 even if I put days 365 or 3650 I changed went into debug mode and changed days run time but same comment
  18. I am using TSslFtpServer , TSslWSocketServer along with TSSLContext component successfully when using the SslCAFile , SslCertFile and SslPrivateKeyFile properties to point to files on the Hard Disk. I noticed there are matching SslCALines , SslCertLines and SslPrivateKeyLines . I filled these properties with text from the corresponding files but it did not work. I am asking this because I would prefer not to expose the Certificate files.

    Some assistance on SSL required

    Hi, I am using ICS TFTPServer and TWSocketServer on my Server side application (Delphi Seattle). I want to use SSL to secure the connections. This question is more related to SSL rather than ICS. I have read on SSL and checked the Demo programs too. I yet need some clarity. Mine is a backup application and will be sending critical data over the WAN. If I generate my own certificates via OpenSSL where do I keep the PEM files for the ICS Server components to access ? Should I generate a different PEM file per customer upon installation or can I supply a common one ? I files are large can I have only password exchanged secretly and data without encryption (My data is already compressed with AES ) ? Regards Allan (Thanks for all the new features in ICS)

    Some assistance on SSL required

    Considering all the advice I prefer to use the P12 files and stick to SSL as it will work for both Sockets and FTP. Just wanted some more clarity. Is the Username and password used in the connect statement of the FTP Client and Authenticated at the FTP Server have to do anything with preparation of the SSL Certificates ? I am trying to create Self Signed Certificates using IcsSslBuildCerts.bat and I get several files. I don't know which to use , whatever combination is not working. RootKey.pem, RootReq.pem, RootCert.pem, Root.pem ServerCAkey.pem, ServerCAreq.pem, ServerCAcert.pem, ServerCA.pem, ServerKey.pem, ServerReq.pem, Server.pem, ServerCert.pem ClientKey.pem, ClientReq.pem, ClientCert.pem, Client.pem Using ICS demo 01cert.pem, 01key.pem and cacert.pem works fine.

    True that customers will love to hear TLS ☺️ Angus has given loads of demos / Self signed certificates etc. Just wanted to know I am doing the right thing. Will update my Servers to use SSL. I suppose the PEM files will have to reside in my application folder itself ? Will give each customer a new certificate (unless he has his own).

    Some assistance on SSL required

    Thanks for the valuable info you have provided. Seems like I may not require any more security measures apart from what I already have. Please allow me to explain my current scenario and kindly let me know if I have a vulnerability. As mentioned earlier I have TFTPServer and TWSocketServer on Server. Client machine's TWSocket is always connected to the Server's TWSocketServer. Only simple info is passed via the sockets. All files are passed via FTP (encrypted if critical). When Client Socket connects to the Server Socket I validate if first OnClientData is as per my expected format else I abort that Client connection. For FTP connection I send a new username and password at each connect FTP Server understands it is correct by doing a matching system between Username and Password. When files are exchanged between client and server they are AES256 encrypted and the server just stores it on his machine, Server does not need to decrypt it. So there is no password exchanged for File Decryption purpose.

    OverbyteIcsSslFtpTst not connecting

    Hi , I am not able to connect to a SSL site with OverbyteIcsSslFtpTst.exe whereas with FileZilla it connects. 'Test.Rebex.Net' allows us to test SSL FTP site. OverbyteIcsSslFtpTst.exe connects to the non-SSL site and gives me directory list, whereas with SSL it does not connect. I have copied libcrypto-1_1 and libssl-1_1 in Exe folder too. I have compiled with Delphi Seattle. With SSL port 990 Executing Requested Command ! Init SSL failed Access violation at address 0062E467 in module 'OverbyteIcsSslFtpTst.exe'.
