This may be a bit off track for the SL-users, but I'm
hoping you can steer me a bit.

I have a Dell PE-2950 running Oracle application server.

I have the need to use SSL between the desktops and
the app server.  This is in an intra-net, but with
some sensitive data.

I'm investigating:

1) turning on SSL in the Oracle app server software
   This may require a bigger box and maybe more $$ to 
     oracle for licensing.

2) some kind of SSL proxy which would listen, translate
  and pass along to the app server.  Multiple ports are involved.
   ?- it looks like hardware SSL devices may be primarily
      for big-pipe super-duper installations and mega-$$ ?
      We are 100Mbs and not that many users.

   ?-  is there a solution using a second SL box sitting
     in front of the app server?  

Thanks for any help you might be pleased to extend.
