ODBC connect with FIPS

[Ben Shriki]

Hi,
My goal is to be able to connect as client with FIPS option on using ODBC.

I've added to my.cnf file the "ssl-fips-mode" option and set my ODBC driver to read from this file but it seems the ODBC driver is ignoring this option.

I've tried to set wrong values (such as "KUKU","455"...) and correct values and to connect with/without SSL. the connection is always successful and it seem the driver ignoring the "ssl-fips-mode" option.

I've used 8.00.25 and 5.03.13 drivers and both worked the same way.

to sum up here's my questions:
1. Is there a way to use mysql ODBC with FIPS?
2. How can i get indication that it work or failed when I'm trying to connect to a specific server?
3. should I add an additional libraries in order to do so? (such as OpenSSL FIPS Object Module)

Thanks for your help,
Ben
