Just to dispel any idea that this has been plucked out of thin air by the JacORB implementors I'll note that there appears to be both a standard for and more than one implementation of ssliop. Regarding implementations, OpenORB and TAO also implemented it. As regards standardization I think the relevant info is in the interop documentation found at http://www.omg.org/spec/CORBA/3.3/. Look in part 2 of the spec dealing with interoperability and search for IIOP/SSL. Tomek may be able to clarify whether that provides all the relevant information. regards, Andrew Dinn -----------
