Hi all, I want to create a simple example client server connection using 
SSL and the Indy components, I also hear that SSH is simplier than SSL.

Questions.
1. Is there any example that I can see that will be useful to me.
2. Can I get the SSL to operate like SSH so things can be simplier.
3. I have the following on a form so far and want to connect via 
localhost.....

IdTCPServer1
IdServerInterceptOpenSSL1

IdTCPClient1
IdConnectionInterceptOpenSSL1

I was able to connect the interceptors to the clients and servers 
respectfully (easy). Where can I get/generate certificate files and do 
they need to be identical for the client and server interceptors.

Thanks in anticipation!!
