[zeromq-dev] zproxy and curve

[Alan Ward]

Hi Pieter,

Thanks for the replies.
In the end I cooked my own proxy using a zpoller loop. 
This also allows me to handle close down more cleanly.

Thanks,
Alan

Maybe I should wait another 5 minutes so you can answer the question :-)

Indeed, there is no support for configuring CURVE security on the zproxy sockets.

Two options. A is to add this, which is a fun exercise for someone who wants to explore how CZMQ actors work. B, use zmq_proxy as you were before, using zsock_resolve () to get the ZMQ socket handle.
