Keep working on getting SSLeay / OpenSSL to compile. I can then give you a patch so you can compile Crypt::SSLeay in perl... then install libwww-perl, and you can do this: lwp-request https://... lwp-request is a perl script. --Joshua "Hyatt, Daniel J" wrote: > > Help. > I am still tryi

Help. I am still trying to find a solution for downloading files using a UNIX script (command line) from a SSL server using AIX or HPUX. I keep hearing from Microsoft admins and programmers who haven't done it that it is easy to do in UNIX. I found a script but it requires a device that does

Crypt::OpenSSL Proposal

1999-02-25 Thread Joshua Chamas
Hi, I'd like to propose a new module for perl called Crypt::OpenSSL. What this would be is an extension of the work that Gisle Aas has already done with Crypt::SSLeay, but updated to work with the latest releases from OpenSSL. Crypt::SSLeay does not currently build with versions of SSLeay 8 and
