OpenSSL should work on pocket PCs already, I can't check that myself because my iPAQ died with the infamous inverted screen problem :-( There shouldn't be too much of a problem under a Linux/PDA. The main issue though is the size of the OpenSSL libraries which aren't optimized for a space constrained environment. If you just need libcrypto then you might be able to use CryptoAPI under Pocket PC: that's installed with the OS albeit in a reduced form. Steve. -- Dr Stephen N. Henson.
