Help - how to use SSL with PB

TerryHough · Post by **TerryHough** » Tue Nov 16, 2004 7:43 pm

If anyone has any information on using SSL with PB Netwoking commands
or even the WinAPI, I sure would appreciate some pointers.

I have to provide communications to a site that has decided to utilize
TELNET /S (SSL).

We have communicated with the site without a problem using PB
Networking previously. But with the new requirement of using SSL I
haven't a clue how to proceed.

Thanks in advance

Hi T, previous posts have claimed it is very difficult to implement SSL (not sure if this applied to server or client or both). You may get more useful info from OpenSSL project.

Edit: Did a bit of searching. You may find these useful...

binaries
TinySSL
TinyBox

PS: You need to be aware of licencing issues depending on which encryption method used.

@dmoc

Thanks for the links. I have already been looking at OpenSSL.
