Installing Testssl.sh Into OpenSUSE on Windows 10 WSG/WSL
In this recording I will be installing testssl.sh into Windows 10 via the OpenSUSE that was installed into WSG/WSL. This script is one which can be used to see how secure the web servers ssl configuration is on a website. I decided to try running the script in OpenSUSE on Windows 10, because openssl is a native application in it and this then means that I don't have to have openssl installed with its lib files in Windows, because POSIX based programs will tend to use as many shared libraries as they can, which then means that these libraries have to then be installed along with the program. On unix systems the shared libraries can be easily installed for use by many programs, but Windows does not seem to have been designed this way, so each POSIX program will tend to have the libraries installed with them, which then leads to a lot of duplicate library files being installed. This is why I prefer to run these types of programs from a unix based system, even if the host system is Windows, so that the shared libraries for them can be installed in an orderly manner.
