Evening,

I might be asking the impossible but here goes:

I have a server here running a couple of applications.

To get to them over the web I use port forwarding ... so

App1 might be http://mydns.org:8081 and
App2 might be http://mydns.org:8082

This works fine, but I want to use SSL. Is it possible? If so how?
I want to type
https://mydns.org:8081 or
https://mydns.org:8082

Thanks in advance,

Jim

https uses a different port to http so all you need to do to get it to work (assuming your server is already listening out for https connections) is create a couple more port forwarding rules:

e.g.

8083 forwards to APP1-SERVER-IP port 443
8084 forwards to APP2-SERVER-IP port 443

then you'd just type

https://mydns.org:8083 or
https://mydns.org:8084
to get to the sites.

Both applications are running at the same IP address.

If they're both running on the same IP then you're going to have to modify your server to listen for SSL connections on both port 443 and an additional port if you want to keep app1 and app2 separate.
