Re: So encrypt your traffic

These days with ssl offload and crypto accel cards, theres no excuse for claiming its not done because of a performance issue. I run it everywhere on my equipment.

When you made this post, was it encrypted the whole way?

You cannot encrypt everything unless everyone else wants to and agrees with your method. DSLReports would have horrible server load trying to run SSL between them and the readers.

It is an excuse. Just because you can have a crypto card in a cisco router, or whatever, for maybe $500 doing it in a "real" server situation is different. You are the client, not the server.

Costs is the excuse, not the fact the technology does not exists.
