Hi Everyone,
ok... here's the scoop. I've been programming for a looong time coding for
TCP/IP client/server applications. I have been tasked to write an
application that requires a secure connection. The company that is
requiring the secure connection has a few methods allowing access to their
products. one of which is SSL. this is probably the most likely of methods
that I will be using. So far, my 1 hours worth of research has not revealed
much code on this matter. Mostly I've found people selling SSL tool kits
and such. so, I guess my question is... is it worth writing my own SSL
routines, or should I just opt out for a package to do it for me. I would
hate to buy a package only to find out that the SSL code I need is not all
that difficult. keep in mind, this will be written in VB.NET framework 1.1
I already have routines to connect via TCP/IP. is making a secure
connecting all that different than using my existing routines? what changes
would I need to make?
Thanks for your help,
Brian
