Topic: captive portal redirect to login page, problems with https://

Hi all

I've just installed chillispot access point on ubuntu 7.10 and everything works except https:// redirect to my login page
e.g.

If i type in my web broswer
http://www.website.com ---> I get redirected to my login page, this works

If i type in my web broswer
https://www.website.com ---> I get "failed to connect"

If i login using the first example i can then surf the web using https:// web sites

Has anybody got any thoughts on this?

Thanks

You must configure your apache to use the SSL protocol
You need a self-signed SSL certificate and then configure the apache vhost to use it

This is the howto i followed. Is there an error in the apache/ssl section?
