Testing the OFC Server Without Enabling Security (162911)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Open Financial Connectivity 1.0

This article was previously published under Q162911
This information is intended for use by banks and solution providers who are evaluating or implementing a home banking server solution using OFC and Microsoft Money. For a fuller description of Open Financial Connectivity (OFC) please see the OFC specification. The specification is available for download on the Microsoft Web site by searching on the keyword OFC.

SUMMARY

The retail version of Money requires the server to support at least 64 bit strong encryption internationally and 128 bit in the U.S. and Canada. However, you may test the connection to the OFC server without encryption enabled using debug dlls that are supplied with the OFC Developer's Toolkit. The Ofccert.doc document in the \CERT\DOCS directory contains information on using the debug dlls for testing.
