How to download a file via SSL from the HP3000:
curl https://secure.server.com/dir/file >localfile
I have compiled cURL and libcurl for MPE/iX, linking with libssl. To
quote the cURL homepage,
Curl is a command line tool for transferring files with URL
syntax, supporting FTP, FTPS, HTTP, HTTPS, GOPHER, TELNET, DICT,
FILE and LDAP. Curl supports HTTPS certificates, HTTP POST, HTTP
PUT, FTP uploading, kerberos, HTTP form based upload, proxies,
cookies, user+password authentication, file transfer resume, http
proxy tunneling and a busload of other useful tricks. See the
manpage for a brief intro.
I statically linked curl on MPE/iX 6.0, so cURL should work on 6.5
and 7.0, whether or not you have OpenSSL installed. I compiled
libcurl with gcc 2.95.2. I don't know how much luck you'll have
linking with any other compiler.
