[DCC Error] OverbyteIcsSimpleSslServer1.pas(88): E2003 Undeclared
identifier: 'TSslWSocketClient'
You have to "Build" the project, compiling is not enough.
Didn't think of that.
It works.
You have to "build" instead of "compile" because SSL code is compiled
because of a conditional compilation using symbol "use_ssl". This is to
reduce the size of the components when SSL is not needed.
1) Do I need any third party SSL appliance or software with this? --> is
this enough?
ICS-SSL use OpenSSL, so you must deploy the two OpenSSL DLL along with your
program. Those are just DLL, no real installation required.
2) This perhaps is a stupid question but, how secure is this? --> is it as
good as SSH?
It is known to be better than SSH. SSL is use widely, for example all banks
are using SSL. You are probably using SSL almost everyday without knowing:
each time you access a website who's URL start with https:// then you are
using SSL
3) How do I send and receive files to the client from the SSL server I am
going to create?
There is no fundamental difference for a server using SSL or not. Of course
there a few things you_may_ use, for example, using certificates to
authenticate the client or the server of both.
I am very sorry,
I do not have any knowledge of SSL or encyrption things, please be pation
with me.
You're welcome.
