Today a customer ran into the well known TLS/SSL3 problem with one of his Domino servers. The used SSL certificate is not up-to-date and also the server didn't have the interim fix installed (http://www-933.ibm.com/support/fixcentral/...). As the customer is using Firefox only (and this with the latest version available) he couldn't open the application anymore due to the unsupported certificate.
While we are upgrading the server and re-issueing the certificate I provided him with a temporary workaround to access the application without the security check enabled.
Note: this is NOT a real solution but only a temporary way to keep your business going! DO NOT use this in production or in genral!
In Firefox, open the URL
about:config
and search for the term
security.tls
Open the entry called
security.tls.version.min
and set the value from "1" to "0". This allows you to open web pages that don't have an updated SSL certificate installed.
YMMV
