Problem with Dial-up accessing HTTPS in MSIE

[jacey41]

We have an Apache installed. Trying to access https web page. I can access the https thru Netscape (any time) or MSIE (only thru LAN). I use the same PC to access https on MSIE Win 98 dial-up - I get the error server or DNS not found. Would someone please point me in the right direction to correct this problem?

Thanks in adnace,
Jacey

Hi mate,

This looks like an issue for your dial up provider rather than an Apache issue.

Hope this helps Wullie

I disagree. I have tried to access the web page with multiple ISPs using Win 98 and Win ME and Win NT. The only people who could not access were dial-up Win 98 users IE versions 5 and 6. I think something is set up incorrect in Apache. I just do not know where to look since this is the first time I have installed Apache. The WIN 98 IE can access the pages as HTTP but not as HTTPS.

Hi mate,

I would put my money on the browser config then. Apache will not affect a user trying to connect from a different operating system.

What strength encryption do the problem browsers have?

Also, have you checked that they are set up to use SSL correctly?

I can personally see no way that this is an Apache issue.

Hope this helps Wullie
