README tweaks
- Move "Directory Structure" lower down--it's not terribly useful, certainly less useful than the "DNS Server" section. - Remove the "tidy" turd at the bottom of the page. It adds no value, and I'm not sure how it got there in the first place. - A specific sections for flags such as `-nameservers` - Add a section about running official Docker containers. - get rid of the old, deprecated "faq" and "about" pages [#21]

<h1>FAQ</h1>
|
||||
<p class="lead">Do I have to pay to use this service?</p>
|
||||
<p>No, it's free.</p>
|
||||
<p class="lead">Can I use this certificate on my commerce website?</p>
|
||||
<p>Although there's no technical reason why you couldn't use the sslip.io SSL key and certificate for your
|
||||
commerce web, we <i>strongly</i> recommend against it: the key is publicly available; your traffic isn't secure.
|
||||
sslip.io's primary purpose is to assist developers who need to test against valid SSL certs, not to safeguard
|
||||
content.</p>
|
||||
<p class="lead">My webserver wants a certificate and an "intermediate certificate chain"—where do I get that?</p>
|
||||
<p>Certain web servers (e.g. <a href="http://www.tenable.com">Tenable's</a> <a href=
|
||||
"http://www.tenable.com/products/nessus-vulnerability-scanner">Nessus</a> scanner) prefer to split the chained
|
||||
certificate file (which has three concatenated certificates) into two files: one file containing a single
|
||||
certificate for the server itself (e.g. the "*.sslip.io" certificate), and a second file containing the
|
||||
intermediate certificate authorities (e.g. the two COMODO certificate authorities).</p>
|
||||
<p>You can split the chained certificate file by hand, or you can download them, pre-split, from GitHub:</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>the server <a href=
|
||||
"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cunnie/sslip.io/main/ssl/sslip.io.crt.pem">certificate</a> ("*.sslip.io")
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
<li>the intermediate certificate <a href=
|
||||
"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cunnie/sslip.io/main/ssl/intermediate-ca.crt.pem">chain</a> (the COMODO
|
||||
CAs)
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<p class="lead">Why can't I use dots in my hostname? xip.io lets me use dots.</p>
|
||||
<p>You can't have dots, but you can have dashes: for example, "www-sf-ca-us-10-9-9-142.sslip.io" will work with
|
||||
sslip.io's wildcard SSL certificate, but "www.sf.ca.us.10.9.9.142.sslip.io" will not. This is a technical
|
||||
limitation of wildcard certs and the manner in which browsers treat them (read more <a href=
|
||||
"http://security.stackexchange.com/questions/10538/what-certificates-are-needed-for-multi-level-subdomains">here</a>).</p>
|
||||
<p>This restricts sslip.io's usage model. For example, it won't work properly with Cloud Foundry's app domain or
|
||||
system domain.</p>
|
||||
<p class="lead">Does sslip.io work with name-based virtual hosting? We have multiple projects but only one
|
||||
webserver.</p>
|
||||
<p>sslip.io interoperates quite well with <a href=
|
||||
"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_hosting#Name-based">name-based virtual hosting</a>. You can prepend
|
||||
identifying information to the sslip.io hostname without jeopardizing the address resolution, and then use those
|
||||
hostnames to distinguish the content being served. For example, let's assume that your webserver's IP address is
|
||||
10.9.9.30, and that you have three projects you're working on (Apple, Google, and Facebook). You would use the
|
||||
following three sslip.io hostnames:</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>apple-10-9-9-30.sslip.io</li>
|
||||
<li>facebook-10-9-9-30.sslip.io</li>
|
||||
<li>google-10-9-9-30.sslip.io</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<p class="lead">Can you make the hostnames easier to remember? It's as hard as memorizing IP addresses.</p>
|
||||
<p>Unfortunately, no. We appreciate that "52-0-56-137.sslip.io" is not an easy-to-remember hostname, whereas
|
||||
something along the lines of "aws-server.sslip.io" would be much simpler, but we don't see an easy solution—we
|
||||
need to be able to extract the IP address from the hostname in order for our DNS nameserver to reply with the
|
||||
proper address when queried.</p>
|
||||
<p class="lead">Do you have support for IPv6-style addresses?</p>
|
||||
<p>Not yet, but if there's enough demand for it we might try implementing it.</p>
|
||||
<p class="lead">Why did you choose a 4096-bit key instead of a 2048-bit key?</p>
|
||||
<p>We couldn't help ourselves—when it comes to keys, longer is better. In retrospect there were flaws in our
|
||||
thinking: certain hardware devices, e.g. YubiKeys, only support keys of length 2048 bits or less. Also, there was
|
||||
no technical value in making a long key—it's publicly available on GitHub, so a zero-bit key would have been
|
||||
equally secure.</p>
|
||||
<p class="lead">Do I have to use the sslip.io domain? I'd rather have a valid cert for my domain.</p>
|
||||
<p>If you want valid SSL certificate, and you don't want to use the sslip.io domain, then you'll need to purchase
|
||||
a certificate for your domain. We purchased ours from <a href="https://www.cheapsslshop.com">Cheap SSL Shop</a>,
|
||||
but use a vendor with whom you're comfortable.</p>
|
||||
<p class="lead">What is the sslip.io certificate chain?</p>
|
||||
<p>The sslip.io certificate chain is the series of certificates, each signing the next, with a root certificate
|
||||
at the top. It looks like the following:</p>
|
||||
<div class="col-sm-12"><img src="img/cert_chain.png" height="206"></div>
|
||||
<div class="row"></div>
|
||||
<p>Note that the "root" certificate is "AddTrust's External CA Root", which issued a certificate to the "COMODO
|
||||
RSA Certification Authority", which in turn issued a certificate to the "COMODO RSA Domain Validation Secure
|
||||
Server CA" which in turn issued our certificate, "*.sslip.io".</p>
|
||||
<p class="lead">How is "sslip.io" pronounced?</p>
|
||||
<p>ESS-ESS-ELL-EYE-PEE-DOT-EYE-OH</p>
|
||||
<p class="lead">Where do I report bugs? I think I found one.</p>
|
||||
<p>Open an issue on <a href="https://github.com/cunnie/sslip.io/issues">GitHub</a>; we're tracking our issues
|
||||
there.</p>
|
||||
<p class="lead">There's a typo/mistake on the sslip.io website.</p>
|
||||
<p>Thanks! We love <a href="https://github.com/cunnie/sslip.io/pulls">pull requests</a>.</p>
