I talked with some of the Citrix folk over the weekend…their position is they 
think they’d be doing the community a disfavor by passing the torch, 
so-to-speak, and I agree with them [1].

official comment from Citrix.

There are a few issues with the current console proxy setup, not least of which 
is the need to have internet access to resolve 
realhostip.com<http://realhostip.com> in the first place - so console proxy 
can't work if you don't have internet access on your client.  I have configured 
alternative realhostip.com<http://realhostip.com> setups for clients - and 
quite a lot of work goes into creating the infrastructure (and certs) to 
support changing to a user managed certificate.

Sooo, is it at all possible to secure communications with the console proxy, 
without having to rely on ANY outside entity?

Testing alone is going to be a pain, if a full ssl cert setup is required to 
use console proxy..

There's also the problem of the certificate. It comes bundled in ACS as
far as I can tell.. When does it expire?
