> It is incorrect, but common, for web sites to have SSL certs that are signed by localhost with localhost as the CN/hostname, but then are deployed on real websites like w3.internal.example.com. If you try to connect to one of these with Wink you get:
> Exception : java.io.IOException: HTTPS hostname wrong: should be <localhost>
> You'll see extensive discussion and how to fix at:
