    are you planning to get an https:// website in the future?

    Which of his several websites are you asking about? Do you mean one of these sites that are all available over HTTPS already?

    https://synchro.net/
    https://vert.synchro.net/
    https://cvs.synchro.net/
    https://bbs.synchro.net/
    https://wiki.synchro.net/

    I appreciate the TLS support! I have AlleyCat! running on a separate system on Port 81, I have my main Apache Web Server setup for virtual hosts and redirects alleycat.synchro.net requests to https://alleycat.synchro.net:443, though most browsers report an invalid security certificate, it is easy to add an exception to the browser. I am wondering if Millionaire meant to ask how to set his SBBS web interface to have a rewrite rule to make https the default??

    when i type synchro.net it comes up as: http://www.synchro.net for some reason.

    Then your browser doesn't try HTTPS first, and his server doesn't automatically bounce you from HTTP to HTTPS. It doesn't mean HTTPS is unavailable. :|

    On my site I just redirect all HTTP to HTTPS. Rob may or may not want to do that. There is some risk of breaking third party things that download or mirror stuff via HTTP and don't handle HTTPS or redirection well (though really that's their problem).

    whois http://www.google.com/foo/bar/

    which was not a valid domain name since it contained the protocol and other slashes... they were simply cutting the domain out of their browser bar and pasting it onto the whois command line without editing out the other fluff'n'schtuff...

    i just tried it here on one of my systems and at least the whois on that system
    says it doesn't know what to do with that type of object... another system where it used to work doesn't work any more, either... that system has had no updates in years... maybe they (TINT) changed their mind and started rejecting those formats? if so, great! they should have done that in the beginning anyway

    Suspect he's like most users who think the website will default to
    https automatically, which a lot do these days, but the majority of web ops who couldn't give a rats ass about Google Analytics probably don't bother.

    Yeah too many of us are spoilt by automatic redirection. I enabled it on my https:// websites (running Apache), because I wanted to make peoples' lives easier, after I enabled SSL support with my LetsEncrypt certificate.

    You can get a valid certificate from LetsEncrypt: http://wiki.synchro.net/module:letsyncrypt

    I added the timed event as shown on the wiki, and edited the letsyncrypt.ini
    when the even runs I get:

    6/24 09:53:26a Semaphore signaled for Timed Event: SYNCRYPT
    6/24 09:53:26a Running timed event: SYNCRYPT
    6/24 09:53:26a ERROR 2 (No such file or directory) (WinError 2) in exec.cpp line 610 (sbbs_t::js_execfile) opening "C:\sbbs\exec\letsyncrypt.js" access=0
    6/24 09:53:26a Timed event: SYNCRYPT returned -1

    I had changed the Directory=/sbbs/etrucker to no avail

    Any ideas?

    The file (letsyncrypt.js) doesn't exist?

    digital man

    Odd, it was in/sbbs/exec/load but there was a file /sbbs/exec/letsyncrypt.js.0 so I deleted it and moved the one in /sbbs/exec/load to /sbbs/exec and force ran the event ... it returned 0 ... I also deleted /sbbs/ctrl/ssl.cert but I am still getting a certificate error :-/

    Of course you could easily get a nice Chrome extension that tries
    https by default at every site you visit...

    which is fine, if you use Chrome :-P

    Well there are firefox versions as well... Just saying.

    Impossible. My desktop systems only have 4Gb, total. You must have the export

    My letsyncrypt.js file date is June 10, 2019 size 8kb, the revision is not noted within the file, just noticed, though that the letsyncrypt.key is file date February 20,2019, likely the culprit :-/

    Where does one obtain the letsyncrpty.key file?

    it is generated by letsyncrypt.js when it connects to the letsencrypt site and sets up the account for the web site requesting the key...
