Hi,

First i'd like to say.. nice API, i took my first try at XML-RPC this month and in only a few days i had a working client with these libraries.

Now maybe its best if i try to explain my setup first. I got a simple Java program that collects data and sends em to a Webserver ( Apache + PHP ) where a PHP serverscript acts as the rpc-call. Apart from some newbie mistakes it all went fine so far.

Now i'm faced with the fact that i'm sending passwords accross the line using regular HTTP which offcourse can be sniffed without any problem. I've been searching the web now on how to implement SSL clientside ( the serverside works fine ) and sadly i cant really find a whole lot of information on it.

I've gotten it to work with the All Trusting TrustManager from the website but i'm not really comfortable just accepting any certificate ( i find it kinda beats the point of having a certificate in the first place ). I guess this is a 2 part question that i have.

1) I'm currently using a self-signed certificate. If i change this to a "real" certificate signed by a trusted authority will i still have to use a custom TrustManager or will it simply accept the certificate without a hassle?

2) If question 1 has a negative answer, is there an example out there on how to customize the TrustManager to only allow your certificate? ( thru java and not manually adding the certificate to the system ( sortoff add the trust on startup of the program))

Hope this isnt the wrong place to ask this question, i was pretty much running out of places to ask it :)

Kind Regards,

Dirk Ronsmans
