Hello Remy,
Thanks for your reply.
I'm using Indy version 10.1.5 in Delphi 2006.
I downloaded the dll's from http://www.intelicom.si/ (indy_openssl096g),
they are dated 13/08/2002. Although I also have a later version of these
dll's downloaded from elsewhere (indy-openssl-library-0.9.7j) dated 25/06/2006.
Which version should I be using - or are neither of these correct?
Also which unit do I find TIdSSLIOHandlerSocketOpenSSL in? I can't find
any reference to it in the online help.
Regards,
David Compton
