I got everything to work eventually. In order to get step 20 to work:<br> <i>Test by pointing a browser to the IP address you connected SSH to last; you should get redirected to HTTPS, then asked to approve the self-signed certificate</i><br>
I put an extra bit of code into sites-available/default to get redirection from http to https. So now after the <b>listen 80;</b> line I have:<br><b>if ( $scheme = "http" ) {<br> rewrite ^/(.*)$ https://$host/$1 permanent;<br>
}</b><br>which causes the redirection to https and being asked to approve the self-signed certificate. <br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Sep 17, 2012 at 10:20 AM, Gryphon Shafer <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:gryphon@gryphonshafer.com" target="_blank">gryphon@gryphonshafer.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Your authorized_keys file is only used for SSH connections (on
port 22), but when you are using a web browser to try to test your
hello world page, you'll be accessing your virtual instance
through HTTP (on port 80). The name on your authorized_keys line
is just a comment to help identify the line.<br>
<br>
I hope this helps. If not, let me know what step on the VM-build
procedure is when you're first running into problems.<span><font color="#888888"><br>

When I go to the test shorewall I get to my "hello world" page but
I don't get redirected or asked to approve a certificate. I'm not
totally sure about my authorized_keys file, I have my certificate
name as betsy@fire which is my user name @ my host name, but I
really have no idea if that is what it's supposed to be. If
anyone has any idea what I'm doing wrong I would love to know,
cause at this point I'm worried I need to rebuild my VM again.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
