Firefox says connection is untrusted

[Ryan Rash]

When I connect to the forums through the link on the CWCki, I get here just fine, but when I type in the url, Firefox give me a warning that says the connection is untrusted and the site's identity can't be verified. What's the haps?

I don't trust these people either

Chris is secretly Firefox and can't trust anyone.

Don't listen to CatParty, he can't be trusted

In all seriousness, I have no idea. It randomly happens to me on Chrome.

Didn't get that one yesterday when I was using Firefox.

I don't think https is working yet. If i recall, Null was using a self-signed cert, and on top of that the https points to the webmail interface and not even the forum.

Ensure there is no "s" at the end of http when entering your URL (http://www.cwckiforums.com/)

CERTIFICATE AUTHORITIES ARE EXPENSIVE!

yes they are but i have one and am too lazy to install it on linode because every fucking thing is manual

some browsers try to use HTTPS whenever possible. However I've broken shit. HTTPS leads to the mail server using a self-signed certification (trust error), and HTTP leads to the forum. FireFox (default tries to connect to HTTPS), pings HTTPS, gets a response, redirects you.

getting postfix, dovecot, and postfixadmin to play together on linode was a complete pain. dovecot comes with a cert, so i've just been using that (and haven't had a problem yet). are the forums on apache(2)? I haven't installed an SSL cert on apache in a while, but i don't remember it being that horrible. (but then again, i may just be blocking it out. I do tend to forget all about how bullshit something was once it's done and i've moved on.)

Because MAY GODJESUS HAVE MERCY ON US IF THEY'RE RUNNING ON APACHE 1.3

Seriously, though, http headers say Apache 2.2.22

It's not. Basically you drop a file somewhere and tell Apache where it is.

Creating a self-signed certificate with openssl, on the other hand - well...
