How To Set Up A Secure Socket Layer (ssl) Into Your Website? - Hope somebody gives a quick tutorial to add SSL to a website

I'd be more intrested in https than actual ssl, like could we get unsecure https hosting here?

True ssl means buying a ssl certificate(and I've never seen it on free hosting), but what I'm suggesting is just letting us use https/443, probably as a copy of http.

What's the point of using port 443 then? You're just going to confuse people because they'll type https://site.com and get an apache error, and nobody is going to want to type http://site.com:443 to get the job done. Insecure as it is, shared SSL would be easier to set up, so that you actually *get* SSL on 443.

I would *love* to see this; not so much for an e-business perspective, but so I could use basic HTTP authentication without worrying about it on insecure networks so I could perform administrative functions on my site.

well, since our host support mod_rewrite, i can just mod_rewrite all https://site.com to go to http://site.com:443

i have never tried it yet but i have tested in using all http://site.com traffic to go to https://site.com..

    If you are good at remembering very long, very cryptic alphanumeric passwords, this article is not

    that you don't need to actually remember - you only need to remember some patterns for
    generating passwords that you and only YOU know. In this example I am using two command line
    utilities that come bundled with any Linux distribution. I'm running Windows XP, so these are

  5. Have You Heard Of Secure Shell (SSH) ?
    info (3)
    Hi all, Have u heard about SSH. Its a network service which runs at port no. 22 Its secure in the
    sense that it transfers data using encryption. The user name and password are sent after encrypting
    so that the sniffer can't get hold of them. More interestingly, it has a feature that allows
    the user to forget password and use encryption as the basis of aunthetication. There is a very
    interesting tool known as Putty. Putty allows you to generate a pair of public and private keys.
    The user submits the public key to the server. The server stores the user name and h....
