How do I tell firefox3 to stop checking ssl certs. I access many sites using self signed ssl certificates and up until now that was fine but now I have encounter two self signed certs that have the same serial number and firefox wont even let me add an exception. I cant even access the second site. How do i just tell firefox I don't care if a site is using a bad ssl cert.

I've been helping my friend setup his personal website and we have been muddling through with plenty of help from google and a little bit of luck.
But recently, I've been stumped by a persistent problem with a directory containing some files. Here's the scenario - my friend shares his RSS reading list as an OPML file. In addition, he wants to try and show how his reading list has evolved by archiving older versions of his reading list in a folder. He also wants to allow other people to browse this archive folder.
It seemed like we should be able to achieve this using .htaccess files, but unfortunately it's not working like we expected.

Network admin / geek question:
I'm in the process of building a small cluster of servers for my quickly growing wallpaper website, but I've never charted those waters before. I found a nice article on TorrentFreak about
Mininova's server setup, and found it quite intriguing. My question is, are there any other big-ish sites like Mininova that are open about their hardware infrastructure? Googling around yielded few results. I'd be interested to see the setup for a site like Digg, MeFi, or Flickr. Thanks in advance.

Why would a server start refusing http requests from itself? Curl, wget, lynx- all of them used to work, now I just get "connection refused". FTP still works, though, and it's only a problem with Apache- requests to the Lighttpd server on the same box work just fine.

I have an idea for yet another hairbrained social networking website (which paradoxically might hit it big :-) ). I've coded most of it up on a linux server using apache, php, mysql at softlayer.com. The hostname is registered at godaddy (which I can change if desirable). What's the minimum I need to do the following (I'd rather work on the website application logic and learn as little as possible about mail server administration for now):

I've got a website that does a lot of traffic. I'm using awStats. It's slow as hell because we're adding ten million hits a day to it's database. We don't want to use an external logging solution because we've found that they underreport dramatically (by 40% in the case of Google Analytics). Are there any free stats processors that will be able to process lots of records AND have better drill-down capability than awstats? I have plenty of hardware to throw a tthe problem.

I asked an earlier question about using Apache to redirect a request to a Tomcat server running Jython. With your help I've gotten that running, but now I have a new problem. I need the hostname of the computer making the request to be available to the Jython scripts that are running, but the mod_rewrite changes REMOTE_ADDR to be name of the Apache server, not the hostname of the user. Is there some other way I can get this information?
