Hi,
the way i would do it looks like this:
- setup stunnel (www.stunnel.org) to listen to port 10443 in the
127.0.0.1 interface and forward that to www.myprovider.com
- the php script would connect to 127.0.0.1:10443 using plain text
- that's it, easy and clean! :)
stunnel will hapilly forward the 127.0.0.1:10443 to the destination
encripted and you will have to deal with the easy part of it! ;)
Regards,
Nuno Silva
