NAME

Net::Proxy::Connector::connect_ssl - Create SSL/CONNECT tunnels through HTTP proxies

SYNOPSIS

     # sample proxy using Net::Proxy::Connector::tcp

     use Net::Proxy;
 
     # listen on localhost:6789
     # and proxy to remotehost:9876 through proxy.company.com:8080
     # using the given credentials
     my $proxy = Net::Proxy->new(
         in  => { type => 'tcp', port => '6789' },
         out => {
             type        => 'connect_ssl',
             host        => 'remotehost',

DESCRIPTION

"Net::Proxy::Connecter::connect_ssl" is a "Net::Proxy::Connector" that uses the HTTP CONNECT method to ask the proxy to create a tunnel to an outside server. The data is then encrypted using SSL.

Obviously, you'll need a server that understands SSL (or a proxy using "Net::Proxy::Connector::ssl") at the other end.

This connector is only an ``out'' connector.

In addition to the options listed below, this connector accepts all "SSL_..." options to "IO::Socket::SSL". They are transparently passed through to the appropriate "IO::Socket::SSL" methods when upgrading the socket to SSL.

CONNECTOR OPTIONS

"Net::Proxy::Connector::connect" accepts the following options:

out

host

The destination host.

port

The destination port.

proxy_host

The web proxy name or address.

proxy_port

The web proxy port.

proxy_user

The authentication username for the proxy.

proxy_pass

The authentication password for the proxy.

proxy_agent

The user-agent string to use when connecting to the proxy.

HISTORY

Because "Net::Proxy" blocks when it tries to connect to itself, it wasn't possible to pass an SSL-encrypted connection through a proxy with a single script: you needed one for the SSL encapsulation, and another one for bypassing the proxy with the "CONNECT" HTTP method.

See "Net::Proxy::Connector::connect" and "Net::Proxy::Connector::ssl" for details.
