According on Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 245030, the
SCHANNEL\Ciphers\NULL subkey, when set to 0x00000000, will
turn off encryption.
On my Windows 2000 Server and IIS (which comes with Win2K
Server), I changed the registry SCHANNEL\Ciphers\NULL
subkey to 0x00000000, and used IE6.0 to HTTPS to browse a
a webpage on that Win2K Server IIS. When I see the log on
Ethereal, I observed that the communication is going
through TCP port 443 (HTTPS), and TLS negotiation was
happening. However, the TLS security negotiation resultant
is TLS_RSA_WITH_RC4_128_MD5, instead of TLS_RSA_NULL_MD5,
contrary to what I expected.
It is also observed an encrypted TLS application data on
Ethereal log.
Would anyone please give some advise how to generate a non-
encrypted scenario?
Thanks a lot.
