Is it possible to use unsupported ciphers? SSL
#1
Hey, So I need to use RC4-SHA for my server to connect with the client. I've tried to modify SSL library, but I've only got "AECDH-RC4-SHA" and this isn't what I need. Is there a possibility to use RC4-SHA without installing an older version of Python.

Thanks in advance.

It was dropped from Python because it is considered insecure. I presume you are aware of this but still desire to use it. I seem to recall a module called "pycryptodome" ( I think) that might cover it or they may have dropped support as well, but it might be worth looking into. You could also search PyPi for RC4 and see if you get any hits.
If it ain't broke, I just haven't gotten to it yet.
