Torben,
Thanks for the comments. I agree that this should be as you suggest. This code is lifted from my own installation and I keep the SSL files under the Aolserver tree. I should have changed this before posting because it isn't the crux of the change I propose.
The main thing is that we comment out all but the users context for OpenACS and put some explanation into the comments to capture the context issue which is otherwise not documented.
Regards
Richard
