The popup “are you sure” is there as a security measure by the browser, currently without finding an exploit existing in a browser (which no doubt would get patched quickly) there is no way to bypass that dialog.

hi,

is there a way to bypass the Alert Msg window ” are u sure u want to …” and just show the Fancybox pop up instead?

seems like its an unnecessary extra step to take.

*time sensitive issue*

thanks!

Comment on Using Namecheap’s Free SSL with Nginx by luke

Actually, thinking about this – the prompt might be being suppressed due to the upstart script that I’m using to start nginx. I’ll investigate and post any result here, in case it helps anyone else.

If other users besides yourself have access to the file, it can be a huge security risk. If Nginx doesn’t ask and you set a passphrase on the key, double check to see if you’re actually getting a padlock on your site and that it is correct information.

Thanks fro the great write up – this really helped. Brilliant work.

I’m not sure why – but nginx didn’t actually ask me for the passphrase. Do you know whether removing the passphrase a security issue worth worrying about?

I have been using nginx as a reverse proxy to a paster’s server to serve up my Pylons apps and its beautiful how easy it is on the hardware as compared to Apache.

I still use Apache for a lot of stuff like wordpress, just because i am use to it, but when the big traffic comes, nginx really does shine.

Comment on WordPress Automatic Update with SSH by Evert Mouw

Works for me.

I use FTP_HOST = localhost and because it’s my own server, I just use the primary RSA keys in /etc/ssh

Also, I use, in the web directory of my Ubuntu server:
chgrp -R www-data .
chmod -R g+w .

Thanks!
