Yep, working on adding support for SSL-encrypted connections to
the Hobbit server. Server-side is done, client-side needs some
re-writing of a module.

There's a decent tutorial on creating your own SSL certificates
at http://www.akadia.com/services/ssh_test_certificate.html

Although You obviously cannot use it until I get the client-side
code finished.

Henrik

I restored yesterdays snapshot from backup, and followed the tutorial 
mentioned above. Now yesterdays snapshot works.

But does it have any impact on todays snapshot?

Note that this says nothing about certificate validation. Will requiring 
certificate validation be possible with Hobbit (both client and server-side)?

I'll note that on larger deployments, it may be better to generate an internal 
CA certificate. We use OpenCA (although OpenXPKI is worth a look) for 
certificates for OpenVPN, Cisco VPN routers and clients, our LDAP servers, 
our audited shell server and clients etc. It supports enrolment via SCEP 
(Cisco routers, Cisco VPN client, autosscep or sscep for generic Unix 
machines).

Not implemented yet - I want the basic stuff working first. But yes,
you will be able to require clients to provide a valid client
certificate, and clients to require a valid certificate from the
Hobbit server.

You can use whatever suits you best for generating the certificates.
OpenCA is nice - I've only used it with OpenVPN, but it seems OK. Doing it with a couple of shell scripts is also possible once you
get the hang of it.

Should work better with this patch on top of the snapshot.

Yes, hope I wasn't to fast this time.

Btw. Today the golfcourse opened for the season. The weather is nice and I 
played 9 holes.
