Allow SSL server sockets

See original GitHub issue

As in some PaaS contexts is a bit harder to set a SSH tunnel over, what about allowing an SSL socket?

Just asking before starting to hack, but what about plugging ssl.wrap_socket over this sock via some argument switch?

Is this acceptable/desirable if I could provide a patch?

Well, turns out that Python’s ssl library has matured a bit since I last looked at it. It now does proper hostname verification etc. if you use a recent enough Python (2.7.9+ and 3.4.3+) . I wanted to see if I could get a grasp of it and get it working in Pyro myself and it seems it works quite well in the latest master branch.

TODO:

docs ✔️ done
testing with proper certs not only with the self-signed root certs that I created myself ✔️ works (with a letsencrypt cert)

@MatthewJohn yeah I committed it yesterday. @divad I’ll check them out edit: with a bit of host-file trickery I managed to make it work with a letsencrypt cert as well, so that is nice
