that would be fine for me. At the moment, I am comparing OpenSSL and 
GnuTLS methods, in order to replace one with the other(s). That will 
probably lead to the desired goal, but is rather complicated. I hope I 
finish that approach next week and can check it... but I don't expect it 
will run immediately as I am a bad programmer. That's why I also started 
to investigate wpa_supplicant again (that sounds like the easier way). 
There are a lot of tls related files and a lot of eap_server files (for 
most of the EAP methods). There is one file called eap_tls.c in 
eap_server. Is that the one to start with? It includes to tls related 
header files and from my understanding those provide generic interfaces 
for the tls implementations. Is that right?
