That's the idea... This means we need SSL proxies available on all of our front-end proxies instead of just on a dedicated location, and some hoop-jumping to get certificate hostnames to match, but it's not impossible. We did a little experimentation in '07 along these lines but just got busy with other things. :( -- brion _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
