As I said before, you don't need to use OpenSSL command line tools to create certificates, ICS has functions to do that. ICS has a lot of really old examples untested for 10 years, really should be removed. You should build the OverbyteIcsPemTool.dpr sample which has numerous facilities for creating, testing, converting and viewing X509 certificates, in various formats. Then open your certificate files which will immediately tell you whether ICS can read them, and display all the content. There are several Wiki FAQs on certificates I previously suggested you read that explain this all in detail. ICS with OpenSSL applications work perfectly on Vista and Windows 2008, two of my public servers are 2008, closed down last week due to Microsoft support ending after 12 years. I believe ICS applications still work on Windows XP but that has been out of support for years so no longer tested. The latest version 1.1.1 of OpenSSL no longer supports Windows XP, you need to use 1.0.2 or 1.1.0, both of which are now out of support so no security fixes. OpenSSL and Microsoft do offer paid support for XP and 1.0.2 for large organisations that really can not upgrade, but not for home users. Angus

Example of a "large" VCL app (120 MB exe, using dll's, DB,...) running on VirtualUI. App is intended for desktop only, but VirtualUI allows to support users on MAC's, Linux... Works just fine, but needs a few more lines of code to handle uploads, downloads, etc. but it's doable. Resource use is heavy, but basically a matter of hardware on the server side.

Python documentation is excellent. Likewise C# documentation. And so on. Delphi is an outlier here.
