SSL Encryption
Introduction
Pages or subtrees within Lenya can be protected by SSL Encryption. This allows you to protect these parts of your site that need it. Note that SSL Encryption is independent of Authorization. This means that you may have SSL-encrypted pages with or without access control.
In a typical setup, you would have Apache HTTPd handle the SSL encryption and forward requests to Tomcat as appropriate. This allows considerable flexibility with your setup, as you can make your SSL-encrypted pages appear at a different location than the rest of your content. The setup here will explain you how to achieve this.
Enabling SSL Encryption
To enable SSL Encryption for a subtree or a page, go to the AC Live or AC Authoring tabs in the Site area, and check the box that says SSL Encryption.
