With EventMachine. This code starts up a server on port 9000 that dumps  
all  
the incoming (unencrypted) data to console:

require ‘rubygems’  
require ‘eventmachine’

Host = “0.0.0.0”  
Port = 9000

module MyHandler  
def receive\_data data  
p data  
end  
end

EventMachine.run {  
EventMachine.start\_server(Host, Port, MyHandler) {|conn|  
conn.start\_tls  
}  
}

There is some code in ruby-ldapserver you could borrow (on rubyforge).

If it doesn’t have to be ruby, then maybe openssl s\_server will do: e.g.

openssl s\_server -cert server.example.com-cert.pem   
-key server.example.com-key.pem   
-CAfile sub-cacert.pem   
-www

Thanks all.

Thanks for taking the time to help.
