rpc::xml::Client specify ssl

rodrb has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I'm using RPC::XML::Client to access an internal server, i need to bypass proxy and i need to ignore certificate errors. This code correctly creates a $client

use IO::Socket::SSL qw( SSL_VERIFY_NONE );
use RPC::XML::Client;

$ENV{NO_PROXY} = '10.*';
$ENV{'PERL_LWP_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTNAME'} = 0;

my $client = RPC::XML::Client->new("https://10.40.1.114/api/index.ice"
+,
                ssl_opts => { verify_hostname => 0,
                          SSL_verify_mode => SSL_VERIFY_NONE
                                         }
                );

The next thing i need to do is to send requests such as:

my $session = $client->simple_request('login', 1, 0,$user, $password);

Problem: I get this nasty warning for each request sent that i'd like to remove

*******************************************************************
 Using the default of SSL_verify_mode of SSL_VERIFY_NONE for client
 is deprecated! Please set SSL_verify_mode to SSL_VERIFY_PEER 
 together with SSL_ca_file|SSL_ca_path for verification.
 If you really don't want to verify the certificate and keep the
 connection open to Man-In-The-Middle attacks please set
 SSL_verify_mode explicitly to SSL_VERIFY_NONE in your application.

Somehow i need to be able to tell the request to use the same ssl_opts as when i create $client. I very much appreciate your help with this.

Howdy, your code isn't actually passing the ssl_opts parameter to the LWP::UserAgent. This will work though: `my $client = RPC::XML::Client->new("https://10.40.1.114/api/index.ice" +, useragent => [ ssl_opts => { verify_hostname => 0, SSL_verify_mode => SSL_VERIFY_NONE, }, ], );` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
