Well it has to be 4.3 and up for a start.
Yes, of course. Here is the current check from HTTP_Request:
        // 4.3.0 supports SSL connections using OpenSSL. The function test determines
        // we running on at least 4.3.0
        if (strcasecmp($this->_url->protocol, 'https') == 0 AND function_exists('file_get_contents') AND extension_loaded('openssl')) {
The problem is, the check passes, but the 'ssl://' connection does not work still.

Of course, that if statement if looking for 'https' at the beginning, not 'ssl', so the if fails anyway.... -- paperCrane <Justin Patrin>
