Re: Fwd: Re: >>> Secure Admin?

I can not seem to get this to work. I have a system with a clean install of OS X S 10.1.3 with iTools 6.5.1.

I created an iTools-generated temporary certificate. In the certificate I used the host name and domain name entered into iTools' "Configure Server Hostname" dialog, in my case "www" and "zada.com" i.e., "www.zada.com" Then I toggled SSL Security "On" in the Virtual Host Configuration table and saved the configuration. I know SSL is now available for the domain because in the Virtual Host Configuration table it now says "www.zada.com SSL" with "SSL" in red.

I tried going to https://www.zada.com:85 and it churned for a few minutes before displaying a dialog that says "A connection failure has occurred."

Alternately, I try going to https://www.zada.com/itools_admin and it displays a dialog that says there's a problem with the certificate (this alert was expected, since I'm using a temporary certificate), then it displays the first password dialog. I input the user name and password and then churns for a few minutes before displaying a dialog that says "The attempt to load 'Accessing URL https://www.zada.com/itools_admin' failed."

I have no trouble connecting remotely via the non-secure http://www.zada.com/itools_admin

How do I get the secure admin connection to work?

You need to set up a virtual host with ssl to do this. The admin server needs a certificate to run via ssl, and it just uses the one for the virtual host you are connecting on.

you can use the temporary self-signed cert that itools generates, but you need the cert there.
