Hi all,
Lucky old me has been tasked with suring up an existing TCP based Client/Server application so that it can be used across the WWW.
The application was initially used to move sensitive data (in real-time*) between applications on the same LAN. The business has now grown and the application has to shift the same sensitive data (in real-time*) across the web to multiple sites.
I've Googled here, there and everywhere but I cannot find anything useful on implementing self-signed SSL encryption within VB6. I did stumble across an ActiveX control but I was hoping to integrate something like OpenSSL with the existing code/architecture. Surely someone, somewhere has tried ? Or am I barking up completely the wrong tree ?
Oh and as an aside; my idea of deploying VPN has already been shot down in flames
* in real-time means "as quickly as possible"
