Re: hook script basics

Hi John,

1 thing it could be is that I was lazy and didn't set up a CA.

So my certs are self signed and don't match the server.

Perhaps the "certs don't match..." error is preventing this as the
script has no way of pressing accept. I'm unsure who this script
runs as anyways.

What do you think?

And is there a way of me configging SSL so that the error of non
matching certs doesn't come up?

I do plan to do a CA later this year (Its on my mile stones schedule
for this fall) however I would like to solve this now.
