title: XMPP - Openfire SSL Encryption - Where to get started?
body: <p>I am attempting to implement xmpp chat/collaboration between two C# desktop clients that exchange XMPP data via an Openfire Server..  The catch is that I must secure the communication between these clients and the server over HTTPS   Is there a particular library or strategy that is best used in order to accomplish this.  To by honest I'm having a difficult time even finding a place to start here.</p>
  
  <p>Edit* Really just need to secure the communication via SSL or some other appropriate form of encryption not communicate using the HTTPS protocol.  </p>
  
  <p>The real task here is attempting to connect my clients to Openfire using SSL.  While there are forum postings here and there across the web particularly on Ignite Realtime's website, I have yet to find a a definitive explanation on how to properly configure both the openfire server and the client in order to secure this connection.   </p>
