Re: Using HTTPS for GeoIP database downloads

I responded to this question in the other email that submitted the patch.

Hello,

looking at https://git.ipfire.org/?p=ipfire-2.x.git;a=commit;h=271bac39a0b2999c843a5ec5... , I observer the download URL of the GeoIP database being HTTP.

Could somebody make this into HTTPS before we close Core Update 127? Should I send in a patch for this?

We used HTTPS for quite a while in the past and as far as I am concerned, it worked well.
