Are the OpenSSL libraries sufficiently friendly to allow for GnuMP3D to only allow connections from those who have the proper certificate, or certificates which are signed by a proper certificate?


  I'm afraid I do not know how easy or difficult it might be to
 do, having never used SSL for anything perl-based.

http://search.cpan.org/dist/Net-Daemon-SSL/ is where I'm looking now for more information.

  Perhaps something simpler might work, wrapping the incoming
 connections in SSL via stunnel?

A helper app might be required for music players that support HTTP but not SSL. (do any support HTTP *and* SSL?)
