Is it possible to not force SSL on port:443?

2005-10-14 Thread Pigeon
I am helping someone develop a product, and for the next little bit he will 
need to access port 443 with out the communication being encrypted (aka he 
could telnet to it if he wanted).


But in the very near future, he will want to make 443 encrypted..

Is it possible to not force encryption on port443?


thanks!

Sure... you just tell Apache to listen on that port and don't turn the
SSLEngine on.  :)

Or are you asking how to make it *optional*?  You can do that too --
as long as SSLRequireSSL isn't set, it should work.

Sounds like a good case for FakeBasicAuth combined with Require User.

Hope this helps,

Thanks, however, I´d prefer something like the Unique Subject Identifyer or 
perhaps the Fingerprints. DNs can be faked easy.

Not if you require your own CA as the issuing authority using
SSLCACertificateFile and SSLRequire, they can't...
