 =head1 DESCRIPTION
 
-OPENSSL_config() configures OpenSSL using the standard B<openssl.cnf>
-configuration file name using B<config_name>. If B<config_name> is NULL then
-the file specified in the environment variable B<OPENSSL_CONF> will be used,
-and if that is not set then a system default location is used.
+OPENSSL_config() configures OpenSSL using the standard B<openssl.cnf> and
+reads from the application section B<appname>. If B<appname> is NULL then
+the default section, B<openssl_conf>, will be used.
 Errors are silently ignored.
 Multiple calls have no effect.
 
 OPENSSL_no_config() disables configuration. If called before OPENSSL_config()
 no configuration takes place.
 
-Applications should free up configuration at application closedown by calling
-CONF_modules_free().
-
 If the application is built with B<OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF> defined, then a
 call to OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() will implicitly call OPENSSL_config()
 first.
