It’s not impossible to obtain a SSL certificate for a local connection. You can add an entry for fictional domain that maps to localhost in your hosts file and then self-sign a certificate and install it.
- sleepychu 9y agobut for users of NAS type devices, we've gone from an easy http web page to change the config to needing to install a custom certificate and change the localhosts file...
- collinmanderson 9y agoNo need to change the local hosts file, just get a self-signed cert for the ip address. But, yes, there needs to be an easier way to say, yes, please trust this certificate. (Like how ssh prompts you the first time)
