Complete newbie here, so please bear with me.
I want to set up HTTPS service on a Mac OS X (10.4.7) machine running a custom web server. I imagine that Stunnel could be made to listen on the standard HTTPS port (443), do the encryption/decryption, and pass the resulting data to/from the HTTP port (80, or a custom port I specify).
This is probably very easy, but none of the documentation or examples I found covered this. Has anyone done this? Or if not, can you sketch out how I would go about it? Any gotchas or caveats I should be aware of?
Many thanks, - Joe
