Clearly I don't understand how Net_SSLeay works. I know that LWP::UserAgent requires cookies to be set, and I would have used the LWP library had it worked properly with https, but it doesn't. So I resorted to using Net_SSLeay (Crypt also gave me some problems).
So, with that in the open, are you saying that I can still use the LWP cookies with Net_SSLeay?
