#Https

Starting a SSL test on this domain as of today. Free cert by StartSSL.

SSL is clearly the new hype, and this time I won’t be last to join it! ;)

Just going to check how much (if any) SSL slows down my site.

Every http requests gets automatically rewritten to https.

I’ve had an issue for a while, being unable to access certain websites such as https://fon.com, but also certain parts of the Apple, Fortis and Microsoft site, while other (https) websites worked fine.

Running Wireshark I found that only about 5ish packets got transferred, and all other data to that website abruptly stopped.

I’m using ADSL (EDPnet), which has an MTU of 1492, however, I was able to access all websites from the router (using lynx, for example), but not from any other PC within the network.
