Re: secure sockets

I have not done this but have studied enough tcp/ip to know that ssl is not a protocol. The opening portion would refer to your protocol, like http or ftp. One would access via ssl using https://, not ssl:// Try that. Curl would be your other option, and that should work just fine for most uses. I don't know how you have the app set up but that may be what you need.
