Yes, but that is not possible :(

Yep, I know that.

I tried using libssh2 and call the channel_write() instead of swrite(), it
works fine with HTTP over SSH.

But the problem happens when I want to use HTTPS, it seems that libCurl
sends data as if it was HTTP, because the server returns an error ("bad
request, are you using HTTP on when server only understands HTTPS?").

I have to figure out what the problem is...

Thanks,
Jerome
