HTTP::Daemon::SSL is a descendant of HTTP::Daemon that uses SSL sockets (via IO::Socket::SSL) instead of cleartext sockets. It also handles SSL-specific problems, such as dealing with HTTP clients that attempt to connect to it without using SSL. In order to use HTTP::Daemon::SSL, you need to have IO::Socket::SSL v0.93 or newer installed as well as a recent version of libwww-perl. installation: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install -- (Peter Behroozi, behrooz at fas.harvard.edu (sic))
