openssl on a home LAN

[John A. Wallace]

I am trying to figure out whether there is any point in using openssl on a
home LAN between two computers. Would that improve on security in any way?
Would I be limited in the types of OS connections? I mean, could I connect
Windows with Linux? Also, if I want to make such a connection between two OS
running in virtual machines, could that be done too? Thanks.
