Essentially, lets say I have a file descriptor(int) for an existing SOCKS connection. I want SSL to use that existing file descriptor and to know that it doesn't need to open the actual TCP/IP connection. What are the BIO and such calls for this? Currently I'm using BIO_new_ssl_connect and BIO_do_connect but I need to somehow tell the SSL lib that the connection already exists and just give it the file descriptor of the socket.

Hi,
I'm curious about SSLs behavior over a SOCKS connection. I would assume that it would function fine, but that the SSL client certificate passed would contain the inner ip address of the network behind the SOCKS proxy. Is there anyway to setup an SSL connection in a way so that the server being connected to thinks that the SOCKS proxy is the client for all intents and purposes. I.e., is there an ip address passed inside the SSL protocol (does anyone know off hand?) and if so, is there an easy way of removing that or modifying it before the packet is sent from the client?
