[Zope] Configuring Zope's python for ssl

[Kevin Carlson]

I need to write an external script that access pages via https.  When I try
this using an HTTPSConnection object I get an error stating that ssl is not
available.  I noticed in the socket.py file that the ssl module is available
"if configured".   I have found threads that show me how to configure python
for ssl but I'm curious if the python that comes with Zope can be configured
similarly.  Any ideas?

Thanks,

Kevin
