Title: suprnova.cc ssl errors
Post by: bitxor on March 12, 2015, 06:14:12 PM
Hi!

Having serious issues with suprnova.cc, SSL errors with different browsers, for example "ssl_error_no_cypher_overlap" with old Firefox. This is ONLY site having this issue, everything else works ok. I'm lazy to start a browser update just for a one site, it's huge job because lots of plugins, addons and changed settings...

According to this test the compatibility with different browsers look poor:

This pools seems to have very uncommon ssl setup because for now it's the only pool which I cannot access. Is that really necessary? This problem started maybe a week ago.

Solution: installed Chrome, just for suprnova.cc...  ;D

Personally I do not like Chrome because of it's poor configurability and strange background connections (some kind of unwanted tracking perhaps; just running Chrome will create mysterions 18 TCP/IP connections which I was not asked to do). Maybe this will work as temporary solution until there's enough time to update the Firefox...

Hey !

I'm always updating/upgrading according to latest security advisories. A week ago there was a FREAK Attack mentioned which lead to an upgrade.

Are you still having trouble connecting ?

With really old clients - yes - they probably use a bad/weak cipher and they are disabled for security reasons but with all recent versions you should not have any trouble connecting - if yes, please tell me and I'll see whats going on.
