Subject description: Can anyone alert site admins?
Reply with quote  Mark this post and the followings unread

I get this error in modenc:



Basically, it says their site only allows secure connections, and that either the site is misconfigured or my clock is wrong.

Since my clock is right to my time (GMT-3), the site is misconfigured.

Maybe someone here can contact the admins to tell them. At least, if they can't find the probloem, that they allow non-httpS connections.

That happens because ModEnc's security certificate has run out / is out of date.
Just re-open with private browsing (or a browser where you don't auto sign-in to ModEnc) and you should be fine.

It has nothing to do with private browsing. Their SSL certificate has expired (or never existed in first place).

You should be able to browse it with other browsers like Opera, non-Chromium versions of Microsoft Edge or older versions of Firefox and Chrome.

Those were *examples* an old Microsoft Internet Explorer counts as "other browser".

I've personally tested Opera and an old Edge. Both worked after I've insisted to browse an unsafe site.

I will try that, then. Even so, it would be best to tell the site owners. That workaround costs time, RAM and disk space... not to mention woudn't you have to click to go to unsafe site every time on each link?

Nope. It costs money for them to solve the issue. They need to buy a SSL certificate and it isn't free of charge. I don't know if Renegade is still interested on it.

They can just unencrypt the connection and then a certificate woudn't be needed.

What ultra mega secret is there in old TS/RA2 info?

I don't think any "man on the middle attack" is likely since peopke, dont download files from, or upload files to, cncnet.

It works again.

ModEnc uses Let's Encrypt's free domain-validated certificate in the first place, so the problem is not about having to pay for one. If I had to guess, there is either no automated system in place renewing the certificate, or it does not always work in a timely fashion. Not the first time this has happened.

That's.... not how an SSL works. Like at all. It has absolutely nothing to do with "ultra secrets" and more to do about keeping your site secure and keeping it from being hacked and used to distribute malicious files.

Do you do ANY research on anything you say, or do you just have a mouth on your asshole and speak from there? Because you pull some of the most wild shit out of your ass when you speak, dude.

Quick Edit: also, if you run into security problems with sites, try removing the S from HTTPS://, sometimes users don't configure their SSL correctly and it creates a bad 301 redirect. It doesn't always fix it, but sometimes it'll allow a site to be view-able.

YOU have a mouth in your arsehole since literally the next thing I said is about exactly that:

You idiot.

And removing the S was literally tghe first thing I did, but modenc doesn't allow unencripted traffic.

No wonder the community is dead, all the regulars are trolls who just use this forum to vent the frustrations with their failure at life.

I think you need to take a few steps back and see who really is venting their frustrations on the forum.

Guys, can we have a civil conversation here or will I have to start censoring or banning people?
