Show Interface https errors because it uses local IP instead of the hostname matching https certs

Post by guho »

I use sabnzbd on Windows with an http as well as an https port. My https certificates are set to a letsencrypt certificate. The problem I have is that when I click "show interface" from the notification icon, it brings up https://<local-ip>:<https port>, which results in chrome telling me:

Your connection is not private
Attackers might be trying to steal your information from 192.168.0.8 (for example, passwords, messages, or credit cards). Learn more
NET::ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID

What I would like is that "show interface" either uses an http url to my http port or an https url pointing to the host name matching my certificate (instead of local IP).

I looked at .ini settings and command line options but could not figure out how to achieve this. If it can not yet be done may I suggest it as a new enhancement to Sabnzbd?

out of curiosity / just thinking along (nothing more):

On your LAN, you can access your SABnzbd via your full FQDN? So https://somehost.yourdomain.com:8080/ ?
