>Has anyone used Winsock and SSL? I have an app using the wwSocket class in wwIPStuff. With one customer the secure connection is accomplished using a VPN so everything is transparent to the application and the connect() method works fine. I'm assuming this is just a wrapper for the Winsock connect() function (and all its necessary predecessors). In any event, it works fine with the VPN and I can easily send/receive raw text all day long.

>I now have to connect with a server that uses SSL for security and the wwSocket.connect() method fails. I get a "Valid name, no data record of requested type (WSANO_DATA)" response. As best I can figure out this is saying the server is there but the protocol is incorrect. Additional research seems to indicate that Winsock, or the latest incarnation "Winsock2" doesn't do SSL (otherwise known as SOL on SSL :). Bottom line, I'm ready to go fishing/surfing/running/drinking.
