NNTP is a read-only interface to this list. No surprises there. Post via the mailing list and you'll be alright. > I'm trying to use SOAP with WSDL over SSL on a server that has a weird > certificate.

The underlying TCP transport is perfectly capable of being told to accept an alternate signing authority for a certificate, since it allows anything that OpenSSL allows. Unfortunately the SOAP client code recognizes a fairly limited subset of those options. This is unfortunate because I would have been very happy to use PHP instead of the cobbled-together combination of C++ and Delphi that I was forced to use instead. This speaks to the need for a uniform function for parsing connection options. Unfortunately it does not exist at this time. If I had just a little bit less on my plate or PHP were just a little closer to my central business needs I would be happy to implement such a beast.
