Hi Charles,
I just used wget w/ SSL to download the file fine but it did complain about the certificate name. Would an invalid certificate affect Hobbit use of HTTPS?:
bigbrother:/hobbit/server/www # wget
https://142.224.108.83/apps/SCMClientWin32.exe --no-check-certificate

Geoff,
I guess the next thing to try would be another tool using HTTPs from the hobbit server itself. Either elinks-ssl, curl, or wget w/ SSL support. The goal being to narrow it down to definitely a problem with Hobbit.
P.S. I noticed in the Apache banner it says it is on port 1443 instead of the usual 443, so there may be some proxy server or vhost that Hobbit has to go through, which could potentially be part of the problem.
Good luck and let us know if you find the answer.

Hi Charles,
This is a McAfee Webshield appliance, so I can't go in and check the Apache log. I know the URL is good though because I can access it via any browser from my PC. It's only Hobbit that has an issue with it.
Any other thoughts?
Thanks.

HTTPS is definitely working, or else you would not get the Apache banner at the end. It looks like you are simply checking an invalid URL. Check your apache error log and see if it indicates that SCMClientWin32.exe is being requested from an incorrect path or something.

Hi Everyone,
I still have problems getting Hobbit to check URL's that are HTTP*S*. I have compiled with SSL support and the testing does work on items such as LDAPS and SSH but it will not work for HTTPS. Does anyone have any thoughts? I get the following message:
