can't find socket.ssl() on win32

ds
i'm running under win2k trying to implement an ssl socket, and keep
getting the error
File "C:\Code\Python \ssl\NewsSrc.py ", line 67, in connect
ssl = socket.ssl(sock , None, None)
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'ssl'
i'm running this under ActiveState version 2.2.2, but i have also tried
under ActiveState version 2.3 anyone have any ideas?

thanks in advance.

IIRC socket.ssl wasn't available under Windows (because of it relying on the
OpenSSL libraries), but I can't seem to find any reference to documentation
at the moment... You can always use m2crypto which implements SSL sockets
under Unix and under Windows.

ActiveState don't ship crypto stuff because they don't want to jump
through the legal hoops. You can add it in or use a regular build.

Slight modification there: ...because we are currently jumping through
the legal hoops...

But, yes, you are correct that ActivePython does not currently include
the _ssl extension because of crypto export restriction legal rules.
We've had a breakthrough here though (yeah!) and I'm hopeful that in the
not too distant future I'll be able to include SSL in ActivePython (and
other products I work on here at ActiveState).

I think I've found a deficiency in the design of urllib related to https. In order to complete an https connection, it appears that URLOpener and hence FancyURLOpener require the key and cert files. Or at least, it's not clear from the description of socket.ssl what it does if they're omitted. However, urlopen has no way to specify such things. Nor should it - for typical uses, a person simply trying to retrieve data from an ssl site...

Hi, I want to make simple client in phyton, which would be able to communicate with Java server using SSL sockets. There is the Java clients, which is doing this - so I'm pretty sure, that Java server works OK.

I'm trying to create a SSL-enabled server in Python, and in the doc for the socket module: ssl(sock) Initiate a SSL connection over the socket sock. keyfile is the name of a PEM formatted file that contains your private key. certfile is a PEM formatted certificate chain file. On success, a new SSLObject is returned.

I am getting this error from python 2.3.5 when making secure socket connections from my mod_python based application. It is very odd because we cannot replicate this in the development environment, only in production on a cluster of 2 debian boxes with Apache2 MPM Worker w/ Mod Python 3.13. Does anybody have any ideas as to what could be causing this error? Here is the full traceback:
