RE: [cobalt-security] SSH Tunneling - Cheap client to use?



Does anyone know if/how HTTPS can be used with FrontPage for additional
security?

errrr ... why aren't you switching the entire Cobalt Admin GUI over to
HTTPS?
That would serve the same purpose and would secure it for all your clients.

All you need to do is to generate a self signed SSL certificate for your
primary site. Once that's done and once the admin server detects the
presence
of this particular SSL certificate, it'll use it to switch the entire admin
interface over to HTTPS.
