Thanks for pointing this out; this will teach me to test connections
from outside my office as well as here ;). I hadn't enabled port 443 for
that IP via the firewall, so it was blocked to anyone but me (my IP is
whitelisted).

Working now, I hope!

That's it Thomas. :)
The men with their stovepipe hats and their ladies, have all paid there 
shilling. (6p for children under eight.)
It is show time and there will be some old cheese in it, for you. :D
