Webmail problem
« on: March 25, 2002, 08:35:06 PM »
Hi,

My ISP blocks all ports below 1024. So I've enabled port-forwarding on my router/gateway machine.

I've experienced the following weird thing.

When I try to reach the web-server through a secure connection (say https://yyy.dyndns.org:1443 everything works fine. When I try https://yyy.dyndns.org:1443/webmail , I get to see the security warning about the certificate and after a while a 'page not found' error.

Can anybody explain this?

PS: On the LAN inside our organisation there is no problem with webmail and when you stay inside the network of the provider (no ports blocked) there is also no problem...

Instead of using port forwarding, how about changing the port on which apache ssl runs ?
By default it is 443.

/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf is the config file, but it is created by the templates in
/etc/e-smith/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/
