[omniORB] IIOP Security (SSL)

[Eric Dumas]

According to Franco:

	Hello Franco.

	You will find the patched omniORB version (version 2.6.1) on
http://www.freenix.org/~dumas/omniORB/. It allows you to tunnel the
IIOP packets though HTTP and HTTPS.

	In order to port the current code with SSLLeay, we will have to:
o Double check the GPL http implementation is working,
o Implement your http plugin to decode and resend IIOP packets.
o Implement the generic SSL interfaces with the OpenSsl library (SSLeay),

I recomand you to start by the two first points ;-).
