The HTTP server in lua-handlers supports HTTPS connections: lua examples/http_zmq_proxy.lua tls://localhost:443/key=private_key.pem&cert=public_certificate.pem tcp://127.0.0.1:5555 The proxy only listens on one socket but you can make it bind it to many sockets. > One thing I'm wondering, if we can make a formal specification for > what 0MQ-over-HTTP (and HTTP-over-0MQ) looks like, so that different > implementations interoperate. Yes, that would be good. I would be interested in the use-cases other people who need this type of interface have. > -Pieter > > On Sat, Mar 19, 2011 at 12:37 PM, Robert G.
