I remember having this issue. It's because when you created the
certificate for your server, you used the Common Name (CN) as the FQDN
of the server, e.g: hostname.domain.tld. So, when you specify the local
address as 192.168.1.2, or if you used localhost, as another example,
that doesn't match the CN that was used in the certificate. If you put
the fqdn in the url for $folder, then it will accept it.
There is a setting in the openssl.cf file you can use so this doesn't
happen but I forget what it is now.
