Telnet to https

This nifty little trick allows you to manually enter http requests over https:

openssl s_client -connect www.pcfinancial.ca:443 -state

This command takes place of telnet “www.google.ca 80” in that openssl negotiates all the key junk for you, and allow you to hack test https webservers.

About Me

Hey, I’m Sean!

I’m a devops engineer by day and an LED/home automation/Solar addict by night.

I believe that everyone benefits greatly when we work together and share knowledge.

I excel at explaining complicated topics in an approachable manner, and I’m not afraid to do so in front of an audience.

I’m also a diver, a geek, a husband, dad and a friend.

I’m originally from Canada, but I have lived in Germany since 2010. I travel a lot and love to experience new things, both technically and culturally.
