ServerName not used accesing admin in GUI

[Victor]

As far as i known, the certificate does not use IP addresses, so you do not have to know if it is a CNAME or an A DNS record. Therefore, we made a quick test. On schedule/client.c we added the line:

strcpy (con->servername, "printserver");

And we have verified that this way works without the browser will indicate that the certificate is invalid.

Is there something wrong with this? Why not use ServerName variable?

Thanks...

Victor
