Good idea! I'll have to wait until tomorrow to try that. I did however do some packet sniffing and noticed that tcp packets from outside the firewall do get to the web server and the web server returns tcp packets. But never returns any SSL ( actually SSLv2 protocol I think) packets. Watching the packets for http the tcp and http packets pass back and forth.
