Default How to make https SSL comms possible to / from RS/6000?

We have an H80 on AIX 4.3.3, which uses http comms to serve Oracle
forms to users on an intranet. The H80 is soon to have to communicate
externally, to a Government agency, using https SSL. Can anyone please
let me know what we have to do to add https SSL communication to the
H80 (eg which filesets to install, what configuration is required)?

Thanks in anticipation.

Rob,

What program is acting as an HTTP server ... Oracle ???

Or do you have Apache acting as your HTTP server
(lpp fileset: freeware.apache.rte)

If it is Apache 1.3, then check out the following link as to how
to compile & install mod_ssl into Apache:
http://www.modssl.org/docs

If it is Apache 2.0.X, then mod_ssl is included in the distribution.

If it is Oracle...Sorry... you'll have to ask Oracle.

Thanks for that: 'compile & install mod_ssl into Apache' is what I was
looking for I hope / believe.

If not, which version of Apache are now or will be using ...
....1.3.X or 2.0.X ???
