Hi again,
I'm trying to follow the instructions in the OpenSSL reference book,
and their example code from their site for setting a socket to
'non-blocking'.
Before I made any changes, I was working with good code that was
making secure connections with no problems.

rather elementary.
The embedded product I'm working on requires a secure connection to
our server that uses a Verisign certificate to authenticate. I've been
porting the OpenSSL examples from the O'Reilly publication so far and
Sorry if this has been ask before.
I need to use 'wget' to do a secure file download. It works great at
the command line. Unfortunately wget asks for the PEM passphrase.
However this will eventually be part of an embedded application so the
passphrase prompt can't happen.
