I don't know how or if Boost's asio library interacts with openssl, but if you want to develop your own server, you probably ought to begin with Boost's asio library. If I where going to write my own server, that is what I would do (if I were writing it in C++ rather than Perl). http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_51_0/doc/html/boost_asio.html The site you referenced provides an example that is over a decade old. The link I provide above it this year, with current examples for both http servers and clients with and without using SSL. Being a Boost C++ library, it provides a solid base on which to build. The license basically lets you use all that code for whatever purpose you wish. And, I am sure, once yu have studied it, and openssl, you'll be able to extend it to use openssl if it does not presently use it, to add capabilities that openssl provides that are not presently available in asio (provided you have a good grasp of C++ templates and inheritance).
