Hi Daniel,

Yes, we are very much interested. I'll have to take inventory of
available servers to see what we can test with. I believe we have
a Solaris 9 server and need to see what's available in Windowsland.

My biggest concern with this is not the ftps itself, but what may
be involved in distributing curl binaries with ssl libraries. I'd
like to have ssl linked dynamically, but I suspect that will be
enormous trouble. Of course, an ssl portability fest should be
fun too...

Hope I can get to it. I started this reply when I got to
work this AM, but fighting fires has kept me here till almost
midnight. :( So it goes...

Rich
