I need a little chunk of code that will allow me to connect to a single
server (always the same server) many times, as it will be used by an online
realtime CC processing app. Looking through some of the code looks like the
server certificate is requested every time a new connection is made. Is it
possible for me to just keep the cert locally and use it each time, so it
doesnt need to be requested?
Thanks
