Try Port 443 to Astraweb when using SSL

Postby Quade » Thu Apr 28, 2011 11:16 am

Several users have contacted me complaining about connection problems to Astraweb using SSL. We've been able to solve this in many cases by suggesting they use port 443 in the server options.

1 - In the server options, set the SSL port to 443
2 - Restart Newsbin.

I think browsing through https would be affected here since it uses 443 too.

I had this problem all week, no connection on the default port and I had to switch to my alternale provider for headers (MUCH slower as no compression), just changed to 443 and conencts fine. Thanks.
