Hi list...
I'm wondering if it's possible to "engage" SSL *after* normal, non-SSL transmission has occurred. I have a server that I'm developing, and I'd like it to be flexible in terms of allowing clients to choose whether or not to encrypt the session data. When the client first connects, it sends to the server, in the clear, a kind-of application-level handshaking string, whereby it tells the server whether or not it wants to use SSL --- already, data has been transmitted over regular, non-SSL-filtered sockets. Is it possible to "engage" SSL after data has already been transmitted? Thanks in advance, Michael -- /* BEGIN SIG --------------------------------------------------------------- * "It might look like I'm doing nothing, but at the cellular level * I'm really quite busy." * ---anonymous * * * -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- * Version: 3.1 * GCS/P/H/L/O d- s-:-- a26 C++(+++) UL+++$>++++ P++ L+++ !E W+++ N- o?
