Re: Problem setting up ssl

[Tony DiLoreto <tony@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Sander,

Nice to meet you. Based on your response here, you seem to be more educated with respect to web security and SSLs. I’m working on developing a startup that eliminates the difficulty obtaining and installing SSL certs. The process is overly complicated and ripe for disruption.

If this is something of interest to you, please send me your LinkedIn url and/or CV and some good days/times to chat.

Thanks,

Tony

This is because SSL-certs require domain names and don't work properly
with 'bare IP addresses'. You'll never get that fixed unless you start
using a domainname and a correct certificate (LetsEncrypt for example).
