From: Marc Heiler Date: 2012-08-21T16:36:54+09:00 Subject: How to use openssl with TCPSocket Hi, I have something like this here: irc = TCPSocket.open(@server_name, @port) ssl_context = OpenSSL::SSL::SSLContext.new ssl_context.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE irc = OpenSSL::SSL::SSLSocket.new(irc, ssl_context) irc.sync = true irc.connect Does not work as is though. Does one of you have a working example of using ruby openssl and a socket? I wrote a tiny IRC class, which connects to IRC, then it allows me to talk there. I would like to add openssl support, but I can not figure it out. The above code failed via: in `connect': SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=unknown state: unknown protocol (OpenSSL::SSL::SSLError) And the official documentation to ruby-openssl is just absolutely awful, in my opinion. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
