Re: SSL error

[<http://dummy.us.eu.org/robert>]

I haven't used VirtualHost very much.  Have you tried something like?:

<virtualhost *>
servername net.tpl.org 
serveralias *
redirect / https://net.tpl.org/
</virtualhost>

the main point being that I left out the port number.  Is there another section
that deals specifically with net.tpl.org listening on port 443?  If so, having
two sections may be a problem in which case somehow the port will have to be
specified.

Just my guess.
