SSL Support

To run myMPD with SSL support:

• create a certificate (key and cert in the same file), example:

# openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout key.pem -out cert.pem -days 1000 -nodes -sha256
# cat key.pem cert.pem > ssl.pem

• tell myMPD to use a webport using SSL and where to find the certificate:

# ./mympd -w "ssl://8081:/path/to/ssl.pem"
