When my site are in development I have always gotten the IP address from AWS, then accessed them from my browser. But here's an article I would read if there is a secret exposure...

https://www.imore.com/how-edit-your-macs-hosts-file-and-why-you-would-want

I do not take lightly to changing my Hosts file because I do not want to put myself into an unstable condition, if I missed something in the directions.

Is there risk to using an IP address to directly access my PC? I assume the biggest benefit is that the site can be kept private from public view, but is there any way in the world that someone cold guess that address?

Are the scrapers out there pinging billions of IP addresses?

As far as keeping it private, it is mainly that I can use my real domain name and keep that private? That's nt important to me since I can buy the SSL cert and do that before launch. AT the moment, I just need to look at the sire and test it, so by adding my IP into the browser, does that expose my IP to scrapers?

Thanks.

Hi all,
I have just installed a Thawte SSL certificate on my server for one of my websites. Its seems et up correctly, however, now the site does not work correctly. It is not a Joomla or WordPress site but does make use of some external assets such as fonts etc. Is this causing the issue?

HI all,

Im currently workign on a project on tightening security on our webservers. First step on this is disabling weak Ciphers that are still currently enabled. Im aware of the list of known weak ciphers, but im wondering if Im to disable these, what the impact be on the browsers connecting in?

We will disable SSLv3.

TLS 1.1 - Not sure what impact this will have?

Weak SHA  - RC4 MD5

Is anyone aware of a list  browser versions that maybe impacted?

Hi all,

We have a internal CA and I im trying to sign a certificate using the the CA. I have used open ssl to create the CSR file, i would like to know now how I create the cert file.

Hi,

I am migrating an Ex2010 server to Ex2016.

I've already introduced the Ex2016 server into the environment. I have not yet changed DNS or cut over namespaces.

I am at the SSL stage.

Obviously I have an SSL cert on the 2010 server (good for another year). From what I have  been reading it says to export the Cert from the 2010 server and import it into the 2016 server. (Name spaces are the same for both servers so the current SSL will be fine.

My question is, when I export the SSL from the 2010 server, will that invalidate/cancel it on the 2010 server and stop it from working? If so, I was thinking of just buying another Cert and installing that on the 2016 server.

Thanks!

Hi Folks,

It seems some changes to my site have shocked the search engines:  www.recoveryaudio.org  Traffic today is down by probably 70%.

Last night a new Divi child theme was installed.  A few weeks ago I switched to a secure (https) server, and also added Clouldflare CDN as well as Ezoic, which is a CDN ad proxy server.

I have read that switching from http to https can affect SEO (and i suspect there could be an issue with internal linking), and I suspect the page HTML code has changed significantly as well.

I'm seeking some guidance to identify obvious problems, and/or possibly hiring someone for guidance or "fixing" whatever issues may be going on.

Thanks!!

Dear experts,
We have a HAProxy installation with SSL-Passthrough (we need the SSL to reach the apache itself for proper HTTP/2 handling so we can't use SSL termination on HAProxy)

However, I can't seem to configure the HAPrxoy to send the real IP to Apache, the logs always show the internal IP of the HAProxy.

This is my HAProxy Config:

#---------------------------------------------------------------------
# Global settings
#---------------------------------------------------------------------
global
    log         127.0.0.1 local2     #Log configuration

    pidfile     /var/run/haproxy.pid
    maxconn     30000                
    user        haproxy             #Haproxy running under user and group "haproxy"
    group       haproxy
    daemon
 
#---------------------------------------------------------------------

I have Server 2003 R2 with Exchange 2007.

I am trying to create a public SSL certificate I can install on the server. I generate the certificate request from IIS and copied the crt file to godaddy. I generated the certificate by opening IIS Manager > expanding server name > expanded web sites > right click on "Default Web Site" > directory security > server certificates > next > create a new certificate > "Prepare the request now, but send it later > Name: "Default Web Site", bit length 2048, and left "select cryptographic service provider (CSP) for this certificate" unchecked > entered Org name and Org Unite > common name: mail.mydomain.com > Country, State, City > let it default file name c:\certreq.txt.

I downloaded the completed file from goDaddy and imported into mmc > certificates > and imported the crt file from GoDaddy. Went back to IIS Manager and deleted the pending certificate > Assign an existing certificate > and choose my certificate from GoDaddy. The problem is this does not contain a key to correspond with that certificate to secure my Outlook Web Access. How do i accomplish this?

is there any method of setting up simple proxy server

can it be linux or windows based, can some body share any documenation of setting up proxy server

also any difference between proxy server and network load balancer? if so like what I think SSL decryption happens in both
