lists.trac-hacks.org blocked by many webwasher installations
rupert thurner
reason is the "untrustworthy" ssl certificate for 'venema.h4ckr.net' !
= 'lists.trac-hacks.org' .
would it be possible to use a real certificate, maybe from cacert.org?

The certificate IS issues by cacert.org.
Do you get any further information about the reasons why WebWasher
complains about that certificate?

The problem is just that the cert is for a different hostname. Boohiss
SSL vhosting \o/

Aye, but there is no easy way around. The server currently hosts 8 mailing
lists for 6 different domains, and we don't have another 5 IPs at hands
for that purpose. And there is no easy way to pool them under the same
domain.

This tops my personal list of brain damage in firefox 3: if SSL is used
to encrypt the passwords, as opposed to verifying the hostname, then it
doesn't matter who signed the cert or what the hostname is. Firefox's
message about invalid cert and evil hacker attack server is very wrong
-- but at least you can still import the cert and shut it up. It seems
webwasher people took that idiocy one step further, proving yet again
that nature will always come up with a better idiot.
