[hunchentoot-devel] Progress with SSL

I've made some progress with my stand-alone server using SSL but still
can't quite get it to work. I'm hoping someone will have an new idea.

I finally figured out how to correctly generate the CA files without
passwords. I start the server like this:

(hunchentoot:start-server 
		      :port 4000
		      :ssl-certificate-file "CA3/ca-cert.pem"
		      :ssl-privatekey-file "CA3/private/ca-key.pem")

When I point a browser at the url
https://achilles.olympus.net:4000/test it brings up a dialog box
asking if I want to accept this unrecognized certificate. I say "yes"
and it then times out after about fifteen seconds without producing
any html.

I know it is going through the test html generator because I added a
log-messages statement in it and it writes my message to the log.

And I know the html generator works alright because if I run the same
server without SSL it generates the test page as it should.

Any ideas?
