You have now solved your problem but if you have Debian-Multimedia in
your sources.list it may have been the cause of your problem. My testing
upgrade today wanted to remove vlc and vlc-nox. Commenting out the D-M

Hello Camaléon,
so we got a privacy statement, but as the wiki states, this shouldn't be part
of what is editable by everyone, but become a static page. Furthermore, I

Main question: is it safe, to open a port for an openssl server?
e.g.:

time openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 365 -newkey rsa:8192 -keyout mycert.pem
-out mycert.pem
openssl s_server -accept 52310 -cert mycert.pem
Is it secure? - it could be DOSed' [

IMVHO, I disagree. Moving a service away from it's default port does not
bring additional security, just less noise in t
