Does anyone know how to use the SSL encryption "without" the SSL authentication. The oracle documentation states you can:

http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/network.920/a96573/asossl.htm#1004601

In a paragraph in the link above it states 3 ways to use Oracle SSL:

  • Only the server authenticates itself to the client
  • Both client and server authenticate themselves to each other
  • Neither the client nor the server authenticates itself to the other, thus using the SSL encryption feature by itself

I can't find in the docs how to do option 3. All it talks about is setting up a wallet with authentication by using digital certificates over SSL.

Please help!!!
