Subject: SSL sockets

Hi,
Since there some discussion on sockets I'd be interested to know if anyone
has used the SSL variety.
I have a sufficient grasp on regular sockets and have written a pgm where
the AS/400 successfully acts as a client and makes requests to an http
server. There is RPG code available that demonstrates the SSL technique but
in order for this to work it is necessary to successfully invoke the
SSL_Init() API. The parameters for this require that a key ring and password
be specified.
Since these relate to digital certificates I am at an impass as to how to
proceed. Despite having read through the Red Book on the subject, I am none
the wiser.

Cheers, Peter
