xmlrpc ssl (slightly embarrassing, long post)

Not sure which SSL library you're using, but M2Crypto's works:

In one window:

  ngps at vista:~/prog/ngps/m2/demo/medusa$ python START_xmlrpc.py
  info: Medusa (V1.1) started at Thu Jun  5 21:43:38 2003
          Hostname: vista.netmemetic.com
          Port:9080
  
  warning: Computing default hostname
  info: Medusa (V1.1) started at Thu Jun  5 21:43:38 2003
          Hostname: vista.netmemetic.com
          Port:9443
  
  M2Crypto HTTPS Server (v0.09)

In another window:

  ngps at vista:~/prog/ngps/m2/demo/ssl$ python xmlrpc_cli.py
  Sure, that works
  Sure, that works

First window says:

  method="Testing" params=(1, 2, 3)
  127.0.0.1:1028 - - [05/Jun/2003:13:44:03 +0800] "POST /RPC2 HTTP/1.0" 200 242
  method="BringOn" params=('SOAP',)
  127.0.0.1:1029 - - [05/Jun/2003:13:44:03 +0800] "POST /RPC2 HTTP/1.0" 200 242

There is also a demo server based on TCPServer.
