By default it uses a 1024bit certificate, but you can generate a longer (or shorter) on if you want. It's 'safe' in that it's pretty hard to break. Not impossible, but beyond your average script kiddie by a long way (in theory if you sniffed the entire session and used a big enough computer you could find the keys). SSLv3 doesn't suffer from this problem and I'll be putting that in as soon as I work out how it's done. ssh is still the most secure for the really paranoid, of course. >Is it possible to _force_ the usage of one particullar protocol on the >server? Or only enable one? Just delete the protocols you don't want (the protocol_xxx.dll files). You can also force encryption via the control panel. Tony
