Re[2]: [cobalt-users] SSL ?



Hello Jeff,
I have telnet turned off.  But in the interest of security, I suppose
it should still be encrypted.

How might I go about doing that?  I have a simple cgi that reads the
form and writes it to disk.  Then I have a password protected html
file that does a ssi to read in the data file.

So I guess my cgi needs to encrypt it, then I'll need another cgi to
read it rather than just bringing it in through ssi.

Can perl encrypt it with out much trouble?
