certgen.py -- Certificate generation module
===========================================

Example module with three functions:

createKeyPair
   Create a public/private key pair.

createCertRequest
   Create a certificate request.

createCertificate
   Create a certificate given a cert request.

In fact, I created the certificates and keys in the 'simple' directory with the script ``mk_simple_certs.py``.


simple -- Simple client/server example
======================================

Start the server with::

    python server.py PORT

and start clients with::

    python client.py HOST PORT

The server is a simple echo server, anything a client sends, it sends back.


proxy.py -- Example of an SSL-enabled proxy
===========================================

The proxy example demonstrate how to use set_connect_state to start talking SSL over an already connected socket.

Usage::

  python proxy.py server[:port] proxy[:port]

SecureXMLRPCServer.py -- SSL-enabled version of SimpleXMLRPCServer
==================================================================

Acts exactly like `SimpleXMLRPCServer <https://docs.python.org/3/library/xmlrpc.server.html>`_ from the Python standard library, but uses secure connections.
The technique and classes should work for any SocketServer style server.
However, the code has not been extensively tested.
