Hi there,

I need to implement the following:

sending SOAP requests and receiving SOAP responses
over HTTPS with

 - authentication based on client-certificates _and_ basic authorization
 - verification of the server cert

The client cert is protected with a passphrase and there must be some
mechanism for passing the passphrase to Python.

Is there some SOAP module doing this out-of-the-box?

I tried myself with httplib.HTTPSConnection what I could not find a way
passing the passphrase to the HTTPSConnection..Python always pops up
with an input for the passphrase (likely this is coming from OpenSSL).

Any ideas?

Andreas
