SSL communication

[admin]

For now we only have support for SSL/TLS in client mode, here's a short example. If handshake fails, try setting proto to tlsv1.

Code:

require('socket')
require('ssl')

host = '127.0.0.1'
port = '443'
proto = 'tlsv12' -- can also be 'tlsv1' or 'tlsv11'

sock = socket.tcp()
res, err = sock:connect(host, port)
if res then
  sock = ssl.wrap(sock, proto)
  res, err = sock:dohandshake()

  if res then
    ...
  else
    log('Handshake failed', err)
  end
else
  log('Connect failed', err)
end

sock:close()
