Afraid you missed the true point behind SSH for this task. SSH requires a login/password for the machine you're logging into, whereas https is only going to encrypt the data that is sent between the two computers. SSH prevents a random person from using it, https will only prevent a random person in the middle from understanding what another random person is sending to and from the webserver. My code doesn't have bugs, it just develops random features. Flame	[reply]

https is also very expensive to implement especially for a personal project for a student	[reply]

https is not expensive to implement. What is expensive, is having thawte/verisign/other 'trusted' source verify a persons identity and sign their certificate. For an ecommerce site, where you have to convince random strangers that you are who you say you are, that is important, for a personal site, it isn't.	[reply]
