Security Warning
« on: March 08, 2021, 06:54:30 AM »
Hi all. When I go to log on I'm getting a warning telling me that the connection to the site is not secure. I'm also informed that auto fill has been turned off. When I do log on I have another warning page load asking me if I'm sure I want to send username/password.
Is this just me? I'm using Win 10/64 bit/ Edge browser.

Nathan.

No, it's everyone. it's because the site doesn't use https.

We do have a cert. Not sure why it isn't redirecting.. Looking into it.

Hi, Brass_Machine I checked the cert and all looked fine. Strangely as I logged on this time there were no warnings showing and autofill was also working! Perhaps I'd better change password?

Firefox opens the previous session for me, never had a warning of any kind!

If you access the site as http:// instead of https:// some browsers may give the security warning if Eric hasn't set it up to automatically convert your browser access to https://. Sounds like he's working on it.

Well, hopefully what I did works!
