Kirk, When I open a browser window directly to the console server I get an invalid certificate error.

When I click to ignore I get a 404 Not Found error message "No context found for request". -Rob On Sun, Dec 30, 2012 at 10:17 PM, Kirk Kosinski <kirkkosin...@gmail.com>wrote: > What is the error in the browser?
