Does marsRequest.RemoteIP contain an empty string, or an unexpected value? And do the other fields of marsRequest contain sensible (non-default) values?

It is a very simple POST method request to a HTTPS address and with a JSON body. A small example how this can be done with Indy (included in Delphi) is here: https://mikejustin.wordpress.com/2015/03/14/indy-10-6-https-post/ Line 16 defines the body of the message. Replace it with your required JSON string. Line 21 send the message, change the server address to your destination server. It requires the OpenSSL DLLs which can be downloaded from https://github.com/IndySockets/OpenSSL-Binaries

Whether the credentials will be saved (or updated) in the browser app is typically a user choice, presented after the login data is entered. Unless this feature is disabled completely. Can you give more information about environment / use case / functional requirements?

The Daraja HTTP Server Framework is a free open source library for Object Pascal (Free Pascal 3,1.0 or Delphi 2009+), based on the stand-alone HTTP server component in Internet Direct (Indy). With the 2.5-SNAPSHOT release, most code is now single-source and more readable, there are no "IFDEF FPC" branches anymore to use the Free Pascal fgl generics library. All DUnit / FPCUnit - based tests run successfully. The full 2.5-SNAPSHOT source and demo code is available at GitHub. Demo applications cover - for example - OAuth 2.0 and Twitter Bootstrap. More information - GitHub: https://github.com/michaelJustin/daraja-framework - API documentation: http://michaeljustin.github.io/daraja-framework/ - Wiki: https://github.com/michaelJustin/daraja-framework/wiki - Features and FAQ: https://www.habarisoft.com/daraja_framework.html

The Daraja HTTP Server Framework is a free open source library for Object Pascal (Free Pascal 3.2.0 or Delphi 2009+), based on the HTTP server component in Internet Direct (Indy). New: the 2.6-SNAPSHOT includes a first implementation of the Web Filter API, which allows pre- and postprocessing of HTTP requests and responses. Web Filters are useful for example to add logging and auditing, input validation, or authentication. Filters may be composed in filter chains, where the order of filter execution is defined by the order of registration. Web Filter instances may configured through init parameters. Example code In the test example below, the Web Component TExamplePage returns the plain-text response "example", and the filters (TTestFilterA and TTestFilterB) add the texts " (A)" and " (B)" to the response. The client therefore receives the response "example (A) (B)". Code: Pascal [Select][+] procedure TAPIConfigTests.TestTwoFilters; var Server: TdjServer; Context: TdjWebAppContext; begin Server := TdjServer.Create; try Context := TdjWebAppContext.Create('web'); // Context located at http://<server:port>/web/ Context.AddWebComponent(TExamplePage, '*.txt'); // Web Component responds to all requests for txt documents Context.AddWebFilter(TTestFilterA, TExamplePage); // Web Filter A will be processed first and appends " (A)" Context.AddWebFilter(TTestFilterB, TExamplePage); // Web Filter B will be processed second and appends " (B)" Server.Add(Context); Server.Start; CheckGETResponseEquals('example (A) (B)', '/web/test.txt'); finally Server.Free; end; end; Code for the DoFilter method of TTestFilterA: procedure TTestFilterA.DoFilter(Context: TdjServerContext; Request: TdjRequest; Response: TdjResponse; const Chain: IWebFilterChain); begin Chain.DoFilter(Context, Request, Response); // invoke other filters and eventually the Web Component Response.ContentText := Response.ContentText + ' (A)'; end; Full source code, including DUnit and FPCUnit tests, is available at GitHub. The Web Filter API specification is still in development and may still see minor and major changes.

Yes, this would cause more work / administration. But maybe you missed the last part: "The accepted answer describes a different solution, using a 'user cert store. (...)" With this solution, no additional user would be needed. The certificate will reside in a user cert store, and is readable only for the user, inaccessible for other users.. Currenly the client is in Python: > For the client I use python while the server is done with Indy 10 using TIdTCPServer. So if there is Python support for cert stores it should be solvable. Alternatively, with Delphi, other HTTP clients may support reading from cert stores (TNetHTTPClient or others).

A client certificate should be stored in a safe place, which is not even accessible / exportable by the logged in user. Just an idea: using a cert store, the certificate may be installed with private keys marked as not exportable. Reference: How to protect private key for client cert in machine store? Is it acceptable for it to be exportable? https://security.stackexchange.com/q/260614 The accepted answer describes a different solution, using a 'user cert store'. If I understand correctly, other users would not be able to access the certificate and private key.

To clarify: you are looking for protection against malicious clients, and the server is not a concern?

TRestRequest.AddParameter('contentType', 'application/JSON', In the Screenshot cURL snippet, it is 'Content-Type: application/json'. (contentType seems to be wrong)

I have not used it in my programs, but SyncObjs.TEvent seems to be standard practice (and should be available on the Linux platform) Draft code: begin HttpServer := TMyHttpServer.Create; try HttpServer.Start; // now the server is processing requests // wait for terminate signal while MyEvent.WaitFor(MaxInt) <> wrSignaled do; // now terminate HttpServer.Stop; finally HttpServer.Free; end; end; The handler code for the http://webserver:port/stopserver URL would call MyEvent.SetEvent, and this will cause to leave the WaitFor loop.

Maybe this helps: "How can I keep a Free Pascal console application running "forever"?" https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14090697/how-can-i-keep-a-free-pascal-console-application-running-forever (it is related to the Indy TIdHTTPServer also) Basically a ReadLn could be a solution to keep the server running. But this does not answer the "or until I stop ..." part of your question and is worth a separate question. I suggest to ask the question as a new post in the Delphi-Third-Party / Indy subforum at https://en.delphipraxis.net/forum/35-indy/.

This page says for SMTP it is still accessible without modern authentication, and explains why (existing hardware which can't be updated): (Yes, the text on this page may be hard to read, as it is related three types of authentication - Basic authentication, SMTP AUTH. and modern authentication). But regarding Basic authentication and SMTP AUTH, it gets clearer by reading the the linked article "Improving Security - Together" at https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/exchange-team-blog/improving-security-together/ba-p/805892 But if SMTP AUTH is not permitted (and therefore not enabled) by the organization, there are little choices. Microsoft recommends using the Graph API:

Can you be more specific, what is the exact problem? SMTP can still be used with basic auth. Modern Authentication is not required. (However, it is a security option, which can be enforced and configured by the organization)

It will not receive any feature updates, see this note on https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/clients-and-mobile-in-exchange-online/deprecation-of-basic-authentication-exchange-online Original announcement is here: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/exchange-team-blog/upcoming-changes-to-exchange-web-services-ews-api-for-office-365/ba-p/608055

According to https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/pop-imap-and-smtp-settings-8361e398-8af4-4e97-b147-6c6c4ac95353 sending e-mails via SMTP from Office 365 / Microsoft 365 should work with these settings: Server: smtp.office365.com Port: 587 Encryption: STARTTLS User name / Password: as given in https://account.microsoft.com/

In https://stackoverflow.com/questions/71993040/delphi-11-1s-firedac-and-mysql-ssl-connection-error-unknown-error-number there is one fresh comment saying "I solved the same problem today, downgrading the MySql version to 8.0.23", and one answer "I installed and uninstalled MySQL (and MySQL Workbench and MySQL Script) probably 10 times. The last install worked. I have no idea why this was necessary.". Maybe this or one of the other answers / suggestions may be helpful.

Which exact versions of the 32 OpenSSL DLLs have you tried? Are they 1.1.x or 1.0.x versions?

Next week I will go through the Sectigo CSC request again, it worked well last year. Not sure which browser - IE or Edge - I used last time. The reseller gives step-by-step instructions for Edge configuration are detailed and include many screenshots. They also offer the option to send a CSR, instead of using a browser. Maybe this is an option for those where the IE / Edge is not working as expected. I don't have experiences with K-Software, as I use a different reseller (PSW).

android.content.ServiceConnection is an interface (see https://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/ServiceConnection) Your code must (aquire or) create an instance of a class which implements this interface. If you create it in your code, you must at least implement the two non-default methods, as shown in your Java example.. type TMyServiceConnection = class (TInterfacedObject, JServiceConnection) public procedure onServiceConnected(JComponentName name, JIBinder service); procedure onServiceDisconnected(JComponentName name); ...
