That certainly would be fine for information about whether the transactio
ns are secured, and how 
secure they are. 

It doesn't, of course, provide any information about who the client is. F
or that we would need information from the client certificates. Otherwise
, all we have is the IP address.

Why is it that there are no C APIs? The vendor (of zWeb Server) would lik
e to use C, and it would 
make porting easier. 

Doesn't Pascal require a runtime product be installed? For C, we have LE 
built-in since z/VM 4.1. 
(? I forget which release.) That makes it much easier for the vendor to d
istribute object code, 
without having to require the customer to buy a run-time license.
