SSLv3 or TLSv1 connection setup (server selfsigned certificate,
|
|
client has cert signed by server certificate).

Query and Response
|
|
------------------
|
|
Client sends
|
|
UBCT[version] [commandline] \n
|
|
fixed string UBCT1 (for version 1), then an ascii text line,
|
|
with a command, some whitespace allowed. Line ends with '\n'.
|
|
|
|
Server executes command. And sends reply in ascii text over channel,
|
|
closes the channel when done.
|
|
in case of error the first line of the response is:
|
|
error <descriptive text possible> \n
|
|
or the remainder is data of the response, for many commands the
|
|
response is 'ok\n'.
