You just need to compile OpenSSL with the appropriate options such as zlib-dynamic and it should automatically negotiate compression in the ssl library. The only restriction is that you cannot use SSLv2. You can test this using the command line s_server and s_client utilities. Steve. -- Dr Stephen N. Henson.
