Help with SSL in 1.6

Hi,

I've just built OpenSSL and Python 1.6a for the express purpose of being
able to use urlopen or similar to grab some ssl web-pages. But I can't get
it to work. I get name errors when I try to use HTTPS or anything it seems
because the "if hasattr(socket, "ssl"):" condition never seems to be
true. And urlopen says https is an unknown protocol. What have I missed in
setting this up so that I can grab ssl pages?

Thanks,

Joe
