Vered, Https is http over ssl.The openssl library should be all you need (http://www.openssl.org).
I recommend startig with Eric Rescorla's excellent 'Introduction to SSL Programming' (http://www.rtfm.com/openssl-examples/) Tim -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Vered Domankevich Sent: Sunday, May 05, 2002 7:30 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: developing with open SSL Dear sir, I need to develop a client that can communicate with https server. The client has to be developed in C (on UNIX), and it has to be able encode and decode with SSL. I have no background on this subject, so please advise me on the following : 1.which SSL libs I should install in order to be able to use SSL, and from where can I get them? 2. Is this installation enough to be able communicating with https server? or should I install some https libs? 3. where can I get reference on https protocol, for C client? 4. is https just like http but with SSL layer, or the difference between them is much deeper? thanks in advance, Vered Domankevich 09- 7768057 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
