      How does Pfsense handle ssl, I am trying to do some troubleshooting for a VMware View Client Connection. Someone posted this and I was wondering if this might be my issue.

      quote]Watch the firewall.  Depending on the brand and its abilities to inspect SSL, it may involve a process of stopping, decrypting, inspecting, reassembling, then delivering the packet.  This is exactly what happened when I used a web publishing rule on my TMG firewall.  After a modification, I was able to get it working without issue.

        Won't touch it at the application level, short of some options with reverse proxies in packages that are uncommon. Nothing like what TMG does by default, that's definitely not your issue.
