I was wondering if anyone has looked in how to implement transport security (such as SSL) into Glade. I looked at the filter mechanism example for zip, but it appears that the Glade filters assume every chunk of input data makes another chunk of output data. This doesn't apply to SSL, at the beginning an exchange must happen. The other problem is that Garlic opens multiple sockets between the programs (boot server and such). The port numbers are also not fixed. This would be difficult to use for an administrator that needs to open a port on a firewall. The other idea I've thought of is to use Garlic as a base and implement a more primitive PCS that only implements the features that I want and uses SSL. Thanks, David Brown
