[Zope] https and ZClient

[Jim Sanford]

So are you saying that although Zope cannot serve SSL it can be a SSL client?

I have a situation where I am using zclient to try and retrieve a Word Document fromr corporate extranet via https. I get an error.

Traceback (edited) is below  (Edited elements are bracketed by **)
