Windows and https

[Riku Virtanen]

Hi,

Does someone know how I can reach https-links with my Windows lynx?
Version is 2.8.8.rel1.
I tried yahoo.com, and Lynx complained about https urls support missing.

Most distros roll in ssl, but if you compiled your own, you need to add

--with-ssl

http://lynx.isc.org/current/breakout/docs/README.sslcerts has probably
a bit too much detail, but provides background.

I installed exe from invisible islanders.
I has such a clue that I need some additional applications installed, but
what are these?

Ah my bad, I'll read the subject line next time...

You need these DLLs


libeay32.dll
ssleay32.dll

which you can get from openssl "Light" for windows.

I've Googled for a Windows-built one with OpenSSL, but failed to
find any good / recent ones. Looks like you need to build one yourself
using 'nmake OPT_SSL=1 SSL_DIR=<your-OpenSSL-root> -f makefile.msc' .

But it depends on your skills. Good luck.

I build an executable which lacks only the actual ssl libraries -
which can be gotten in another location - see my webpage
