Hi !

I'm currently looking into solutions to use SSLServerSocket and
SSLSocket with your (the SUN) CORBA-implementation.

This has not proved to be the easiest thing to do since the
implementation lack the corba securityservice and I'm not sure how to
replace the SocketFactory with my applications without changing the
sourcecode (and thereby not being able to redistribute the changed
sourcecode).

Have you guys any experience with this kind of "problem" and do you
have any plans on when or if SUN is going to release a securityservice
for the CORBAimplementation ?

If you have any pointers (URLs ?) to solutions to this problem i'd be
happy to hear from you.
