NAME

       Net::HTTPS - Low-level HTTP over SSL/TLS connection (client)

DESCRIPTION

       The "Net::HTTPS" is a low-level HTTP over SSL/TLS client.  The interface is the same as the interface for "Net::HTTP", but the constructor
       method take additional parameters as accepted by IO::Socket::SSL.  The "Net::HTTPS" object isa "IO::Socket::SSL" too, which make it inherit
       additional methods from that base class.

       For historical reasons this module also supports using "Net::SSL" (from the Crypt-SSLeay distribution) as its SSL driver and base class.
       This base is automatically selected if available and "IO::Socket::SSL" isn't.  You might also force which implementation to use by setting
       $Net::HTTPS::SSL_SOCKET_CLASS before loading this module.  If not set this variable is initialized from the
       "PERL_NET_HTTPS_SSL_SOCKET_CLASS" environment variable.

ENVIRONMENT

       You might set the "PERL_NET_HTTPS_SSL_SOCKET_CLASS" environment variable to the name of the base SSL implementation (and Net::HTTPS base
       class) to use.  The default is "IO::Socket::SSL".  Currently the only other supported value is "Net::SSL".

NAME

       Net::Server::Proto::SSL - Net::Server SSL protocol.

SYNOPSIS

       Until this release, it was preferrable to use the Net::Server::Proto::SSLEAY module.  Recent versions include code that overcomes original
       limitations.

       See Net::Server::Proto.	See Net::Server::Proto::SSLEAY.

	   use base qw(Net::Server::HTTP);
	   main->run(
	       proto => 'ssl',
	       SSL_key_file  => "/path/to/my/file.key",
	       SSL_cert_file => "/path/to/my/file.crt",
	   );

	   # OR

	   sub SSL_key_file  { "/path/to/my/file.key" }
	   sub SSL_cert_file { "/path/to/my/file.crt" }
	   main->run(proto = 'ssl');

	   # OR

	   main->run(
	       port => [443, 8443, "80/tcp"],  # bind to two ssl ports and one tcp
	       proto => "ssl",	     # use ssl as the default
	       ipv  => "*",	     # bind both IPv4 and IPv6 interfaces
	       SSL_key_file  => "/path/to/my/file.key",
	       SSL_cert_file => "/path/to/my/file.crt",
	   );

	   # OR

	   main->run(port => [{
	       port  => "443",
	       proto => "ssl",
	       # ipv => 4, # default - only do IPv4
	       SSL_key_file  => "/path/to/my/file.key",
	       SSL_cert_file => "/path/to/my/file.crt",
	   }, {
	       port  => "8443",
	       proto => "ssl",
	       ipv   => "*", # IPv4 and IPv6
	       SSL_key_file  => "/path/to/my/file2.key", # separate key
	       SSL_cert_file => "/path/to/my/file2.crt", # separate cert

	       SSL_foo => 1, # Any key prefixed with SSL_ passed as a port hashref
			     # key/value will automatically be passed to IO::Socket::SSL
	   }]);

DESCRIPTION

       Protocol module for Net::Server based on IO::Socket::SSL.  This module implements a secure socket layer over tcp (also known as SSL) via
       the IO::Socket::SSL module.  If this module does not work in your situation, please also consider using the SSLEAY protocol
       (Net::Server::Proto::SSLEAY) which interfaces directly with Net::SSLeay.  See Net::Server::Proto.

       If you know that your server will only need IPv4 (which is the default for Net::Server), you can load IO::Socket::SSL in inet4 mode which
       will prevent it from using Socket6 and IO::Socket::INET6 since they would represent additional and unsued overhead.

	   use IO::Socket::SSL qw(inet4);
	   use base qw(Net::Server::Fork);

	   __PACKAGE__->run(proto => "ssl");

PARAMETERS

       In addition to the normal Net::Server parameters, any of the SSL parameters from IO::Socket::SSL may also be specified.	See
       IO::Socket::SSL for information on setting this up.  All arguments prefixed with SSL_ will be passed to the IO::Socket::SSL->configure
       method.

BUGS

       Until version Net::Server version 2, Net::Server::Proto::SSL used the default IO::Socket::SSL::accept method.  This old approach introduces
       a DDOS vulnerability into the server, where the socket is accepted, but the parent server then has to block until the client negotiates the
       SSL connection.	This has now been overcome by overriding the accept method and accepting the SSL negotiation after the parent socket has
       had the chance to go back to listening.

LICENCE

       Distributed under the same terms as Net::Server

THANKS

       Thanks to Vadim for pointing out the IO::Socket::SSL accept was returning objects blessed into the wrong class.
