Using SOAP over HTTPS.

Hi.

So far I've used SOAP services purely for our intranet setup over HTTP.

I'm now making them available to external third-parties.

Can PHP use SOAP over HTTPS without any issues.

Our webservice web server will have a https://soap.domain.com domain.

Using IIS for this.

We are distinguishing between authentication (i.e. a login) and
secured communication.

Our framework will require a login request to gain a security token
which will be required for subsequent requests, but we don't want to
pass that detail over the wire in plain text.

So, using secured comms (https) seems appropriate, but before I start
down this route and find issues with SOAP+PHP+HTTPS I would like to
know if I am barking up the wrong tree, so to speak.

Regards,

Richard Quadling.
