What do you need to do with HTTPS? Serve it? Or access an HTTPS server as a client? If you need to serve HTTPS, you can use Apache with mod_ssl. You can download Apache + mod_ssl for Windows at http://www.modssl.org/contrib/ I'm using the one called Apache_1.3.20-Mod_SSL_2.8.4-OpenSSL_0.9.6a-WIN32.zip For client-side usage, check out M2Crypto at http://www.post1.com/home/ngps/m2/ . We're using its XML-RPC functionality in a Python client to access an XML-RPC server (written using Webware/Apache/mod_ssl) securely. -- - Geoff Talvola [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Webware-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/webware-discuss
