Thank you both for your input. I've been working on the system for the
past few days and it seems to be working well now. It now supports
(with some hoop jumping) an all-SSL model and a login-only SSL model
so I'm happy.
As an aside, looking back at the effort I expended setting up SSL only
for the authentication data it probably wasn't worth it given the
scope of my application.
Thanks,
Eric
