Secure Admin

[Brice Le Blevennec <brice@xxxxxxxxx>]

Just a little mail to thanks Tenon support.
I can now access the itools web admin over SSL ... for free ;-)

For those interested :
1) create a CSR for one of your virtual hosts
2) a temp cert is created autoamtically
3) enable SSL on this virtual host
   (a little error message is displayed in your browser for 2 clicks)
4) launch the admin using http://www.domain.com/itools_admin
5) connect to https://www.domain.com:85/ for secure admin

You can use the temporary cert generated if you trust yourself ;-)
