I have an Apache Web server running on a Linux server with OpenSSL and all
that good stuff.  The HTTPS works just fine.  Now, many software companies
would like to add new features into their software so that their application
(written in VB, C and who  knows what other languages) can create a text
file dump of their information and transfer the file to us over a secure
connection.  They (the software companies) don't want to have their
application interface with a browser as they don't know what browser their
customer uses and don't want to deal with the differences between them.

Bottom line- Is there a way that an application (not browser-based) can
transfer a file to my web server over HTTPS without going through the
browser?  Can they just open a connection on port 443 and transfer?  Where
does the encryption happen?  I have this happening easily through a browser
via a PHP script, but now I need to figure out how to do it without the
browser interface.

Any help is appreciated
