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

How do I implement HTTPS using threads? I have tried using HTTP::Daemon::SSL but it gives me a segmentation fault with threads as the underlying Net::SSLeay module is not thread safe. Is there any workaround for this?

    caveat: I haven't actually used this module

    Did you read the cpan documentation for Net::SSLeay? It has a section on how to use it in a multi-threaded environment. It should probably work if you follow those instructions, unless you're also using another module that independently initializes openssl.
