hoping you can steer me a bit.

I have a Dell PE-2950 running Oracle application server.

I have the need to use SSL between the desktops and
the app server.  This is in an intra-net, but with
some sensitive data.

I'm investigating:

1) turning on SSL in the Oracle app server software
    This may require a bigger box and maybe more $$ to
      oracle for licensing.

2) some kind of SSL proxy which would listen, translate
   and pass along to the app server.  Multiple ports are involved.
    ?- it looks like hardware SSL devices may be primarily
       for big-pipe super-duper installations and mega-$$ ?
       We are 100Mbs and not that many users.

    ?-  is there a solution using a second SL box sitting
      in front of the app server?

Thanks for any help you might be pleased to extend.
