Re: Domino on the IBM i

[Brad Stone <bvstone@xxxxxxxxx>]

My software literally uses the OS SSL/TLS support.

I missed what OS the OP was running.  But I do have customers running back
to V7R1.

If they are on a much older OS they don't have SSL support and nothing will
work for a cloud based solution.  Unless you find some (and there are) that
don't use SSL/TLS or you use some sort of proxy in house.  In that case, my
stuff will still work fine.

Maybe find a PC and load Lotus Notes.. ;)
