Digital certificates in perl

[onereliant]

I need to send a digital certificate to a secure site. Using perl I need to read in and send my certificate and pw to the site. I'll take any ideas at this point.

What kind of digital certificate is it? Have you checked CPAN for a module that implements that type of encryption? How are you connecting to the site to send them such information? HTTP/LWP? SSH? FTP? Need more info...

That's the problem, I'm looking for the best method. Currently I do it in java keystore etc... but cannot find any documentation or code samples on how to send a cert in perl. The cert is an *.pfx cert similar to that you would load into in IE to connect to a secure site - https.

send a cert" is too generic, more details are needed. It sounds like you're talking about an SSL certificate, so have you searched cpan for SSL?

You haven't mentioned the kind of connection you're making. Is it like a web page, HTTPS? Are you using the LWP libraries or some other method? Some sites support FTP over SSL, is that what you're trying to do? What kind of connection are you making in Java? What is the end task you're trying to accomplish?
