Hi Daniel, Apologies on the ssh statement - I meant https :) The main reason why I followed the guide was because I am trying to do an https post to a web application I have developed, where I need both the host and peer to be verified. I ran into problems when including the CURLOPT_CAINFO instruction in VS2005, so I assumed I need to possibly use OpenSSL to solve my problem - that is why I followed the guide in VS2008. (I am kinda new to using curl so I wanted to follow it verbatim). However, I have just found that even if I just use the libcurl library in VS2008 it gives me the same problem (https unsupported) when using https without the CURLOPT_CAINFO instruction - this does work in VS2005 however... ------------------------------------------------------------------- List admin: http://cool.haxx.se/list/listinfo/curl-library Etiquette: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/etiquette.html
