<h2>How to enable encryption on MSSQL</h2>

<h3>Under Linux (or any system that have openssl)</h3>

<pre>
# create a file containing key and self-signed certificate
openssl req \
  -x509 -nodes -days 365 \
  -newkey rsa:1024 -keyout mycert.pem -out mycert.pem

# export mycert.pem as PKCS#12 file, mycert.pfx
openssl pkcs12 -export \
  -out mycert.pfx -in mycert.pem \
  -name "My Certificate"
</pre>

<p>So we created a mycert.pfx certificate ready to be imported

<h3>Under Windows</h3>

<p>Open MMC and add certificates snap-in, add our certificate under <b>personal</b> and under <b>ca root</b> (to validate it)

<p>Add to the registry the thumbprint of our certificato so to be used by mssql. For examples

<pre>
REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSSQLServer\MSSQLServer\SuperSocketNetLib]
"Certificate"=hex:DD,5F,6C,EE,47,8E,0C,C0,74,8B,C4,71,8D,87,1C,E6,07,20,F2,28
</pre>

<p>Restart MSSQL

<p>Check event viewer for results

<p>Meaning of encryption flag (client):
<ul>
<li>0x00 normal
<li>0x01 high encryption (128 bit ??)
</ul>

<p>MSSQL 2005 have 9.0.0 as a version and have a single byte option 4 (always seen as zero, I don't know the meaning).

<p>Meaning of encryption flag (server):
<ul>
<li>0x02, no certificate, no encryption required
  just do normal jobs (like FreeTDS)
<li>0x00, certificate, no force flag on server,
  prelogin to see certificate (TLS 1.0, not SSL 2 or 3 !!)
  login encrypted, after login do normal TDS (not
  encrypted)
<li>0x01, certificate, high encryption required by client
  prelogin to see certificate
  login encrypted, after login changed crypt (my client close connection
perhaps a configuration problem...)
<li>0x03, certificate enabled, force encryption configured on server
  prelogin like 0x00, remains in SSL after login
</ul>

<p>Note that mssql2k unpatched do not set last packet flag (byte 2) for this packet.

<p>Following a valid encrypted connection (0x00 from server, no force)

<p>NOTE: if server send certificate request client (MS ODBC) crash so I think this is not supported.

a fully crypted packet (login packet).

<p>Now normal data follow. In this case server used flag 0 (see above).

<p>With force login (0x03 from server) after crypted login packet server
and client continue to keep encrypting full packets

<p>Note that uncrypted packets are still splitted using packet size selected during
login (that is usually 4096 bytes).
