Re: Why there is no encryption if I download files from cdimage.debian.org ?



Hi,

Accessing "cdimage.debian.org/" and
"cdimage.debian.org/any-subfolder/" are different things. See:

$ curl -o /dev/null -v cdimage.debian.org/
(...)

< Location: http://www.debian.org/CD/
(...)

Trying to access "/" you are redirected "www.debian.org", which does
have HTTPS enabled. If you try to access "cdimage.debian.org" using
HTTPS, you'll see that currently this is not possible:

$ curl -o /dev/null https://cdimage.debian.org
(...)
curl: (7) Failed to connect to cdimage.debian.org port 443: Connection refused

This way we can't say that "cdimage.debian.org" isn't offering a
certificate that it already has, because this doesn't looks to be the
case.

Tiago.
