Note: This chat software should only be used as a simulator to experiment with different ciphers, and the OpenSSL library in general. Despite the name, this is not a secure chat client.
The SSL/TLS chat client is a chat client implemented using python and Qt (PyQt). The chat is P2P, but a centralized name-server is used to find other users.
To run the chat client, do the following:
- Run nameserver.py on the name-server
- Edit the IP in nameclient.py (on the clients) to the IP of the name-server
- Run main.py on the clients
The available cipers in the settings window can easily be changed by editing the ciphers-array in the UserPref class. The certificate and key files generated by the program can be swaped out with your own by using the same name in the same location.
