Hello. I have lots of experience using PHP and SOAP, equally with curl, wget, perl etc. and SSL, on LAMP platforms. I'm sure I can set you on the right track.
Relevant Skills and Experience
Software engineer, many years experience, specific experience with PHP / sockets, SSL, curl, wget/put, perl and LAMP. Lots of other irrelevant experience.
Proposed Milestones
$277 USD - Full delivery of working SOAP based code/connectivity over SSL
Normally, SSL connections are managed by the server, including pushing the certificate. It might be something simple, maybe you're not connecting on the correct port/protocol etc. ; or it could be something in the library you are using.
