    SSL errors

    in Website

    Posted

    While you're changing this, you might want to consider doing some other "hardening" at the same time. SSL Labs gives you a "B" rating, but it probably wouldn't take much effort to get that up to an "A" with sorting of cipher suites and updating SSL certs. We recently did this on a number of servers at my company and there's a tool which makes this process very easy.

    In fact they had an A rating with the new configuration (and with a better signature algorithm for one certificate in the chain they would have had an A+ rating).

     

    It's sad that there is no official statement from Groundspeak.

    The new map is the worst thing I've ever seen at gc.com:

     

    • Less than 50% of the tiles are loading
    • No sat-view in Europe anymore

     

    Germany is one of the most active Geocaching-countries - you'll be hated by lot of us. I'm a mapper of OSM and used it already before the remove of Gmaps. But Google is the only provider for aero-images here in Germany with an usable resolution.

     

    PS: Bing is no alternative, too low resolution.

    Getting a 302 as feedback should be enough. It worked a few hours ago with the same environment (FF 6.0.2, Win7). I don't know why this simple request

     

    GET /seek/geocache.logbook?tkn=**********&idx=1&num=10&decrypt=false HTTP/1.1

    results in a 302.

    Attention!

     

    The logs are loaded with AJAX now. The JSON-response seems to be identical to the new "public" API. Proviedes a lot of additional information (see below). But: The email-address of the account is shown whether it is public in the profile or not!
