I just upgraded Net::SSLeay.pm to understand OpenSSL version numbers.
Some small bugfixes were included as well.

Download from CPAN, e.g:

        
ftp.funet.fi:/pub/languages/perl/CPAN/authors/id/SAMPO/Net_SSLeay.pm-1.03.tar.gz

or from my site

        http://www.neuronio.pt/SSLeay.pm.html

--Sampo

(old blurb follows)

What is this? 

Net::SSLeay.pm is a perl module that allows you to call Secure Sockets
Layer (SSL) functions of the SSLeay/OpenSSL library directly from your perl
scripts. Its useful if you want to program robots that access secure
web servers or if you want to build your own applications over SSL
encrypted tunnels. If you just want to view web pages on https
servers, you could say

        perl -e 'use Net::SSLeay; ($p)=Net::SSLeay::get_https("www.openssl.org", 443, 
"/"); print $p'

The mission of Net::SSLeay is to provide simple (easy to use?) API to
SSL specific parts and few support functions of SSLeay/OpenSSL. I presume
Eric's module will evolve to provide API to all crypto available in
SSLeay. I will make an effort to maintain this module in sync with
newest SSLeay/OpenSSL versions in future.
