Re: SSL and LWP on win32

I use LWP/SSL with ActivePerl on Win32 daily. From memory, I think I installed the Net::SSLeay package which is available via PPM and then it 'just worked'.

Update: Apparently this isn't available from ActiveState but the following does work - I just tested it:

C:\> ppm
ppm> rep add kobes http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms
ppm> search ssl
ppm> install Net_SSLeay.pm
ppm> install IO-Socket-SSL

From memory, I think I installed the Net::SSLeay package which is available via PPM and then it 'just worked'. Unfortunately, SSLeay hasn't been available from ActiveState for several weeks. ActiveState's CPAN build reports show that they're unable to build it. This happened a while back with some of the database drivers--they were unavailable for several weeks before reappearing. I hope the same happens with Net::SSLeay.	[reply]
