I know a paranoid admin is a good admin. So I can appreciate why surpass no longer grants ssh access. Therefore I hope surpass can appreciate me asking what's up with the self-signed SSL certificate when accessing cpanel ? I don't expect it to be signed for my domain of course but something more trustworthy and less man-in-the-middle-attack than 'moon.x-gravity'. I know self-signing the certificate is cheaper but can some information referring to surpass be put into it? At least not so generic as :

E = sslcpanel.net
CN = moon.x-gravity
OU = Unknown
O = Unknown
L = Unknown
ST = Unknown
C = US

The server Flash was a dedicated server of one of our clients. They got a different server, and so we "recycled" this server into Flash.
Their certifcate is still on this server and you should not even see that, period.
You are using /cpanel, so that is why you see it.

If you use :2082, you won't see the certificate.

For some reason the server is pointing cpanel to https, when it should be pointed to http. Normally a certificate is not used, but can be.
The techs already know about this (how cpanel is pointing to https by default) and should have fixed it already. I will ask them about it but I am sure they'll get to it within 30 more minutes if they haven't already fixed it by this time of my post. I'm the one that actually noticed it doing that, about 2 hours ago.
