my question... what happens when you use address literals in the URL; i.e. http(s)://192.02.80/index.php
Try it. With both Firefox (1.0.6) and MSIE (6.0.2600), I get a hostname mismatch warning when replacing the hostname in an https: URL with its IP address, because the IP address is not what is specified in the certificate. However, I also use the Petname toolbar <http://www.waterken.com/user/PetnameTool/>, which tells me that the site is in fact the expected one. -- David Hopwood <david.nospam.hopwood@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> _______________________________________________ Ietf@xxxxxxxx https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
