Hi,

I know, that creating properly trusted ssl certificates for opennic domains is (currently) impossible. But I'd still like to urge the operator of reg.libre to add the reg.libre vhost backend also on https (on any certificate). Because, currently, one is forced to use http://reg.libre, because https://reg.libre brings up the content from a different vhost (after ignoring to the unavoidable certificate warning/error).

I think, using https with a broken certificate is still safer than using no https at all - it withstands passive eavesdropping, and also one can use tofu to pin the certificate after first use.

btw: This might be true for other sites within opennic's namespace, so maybe everyone running sites which handle secret data (e.g. login credentials) may want to check their config too :-)

cheers,
Erich
