Hello Boyle, It's not that I dont understand authentication is important, but if I have a non-SSL VirtualHost (without authentication and without encryption) and I can add encryption, I want to know if I can. Just if I can. Is that so bad? Returning to your armored car comparison, maybe it is better to have an armored car with an untrusted driver, than a non-armored car with an untruster driver. I know it is better to have both. I understand that. But it may not be possible. I just want to know so I can decide better. Thank you for your time and patience, -- Diego.
