Remove vulnerability by disabling SSL 2.0/3.0 and use TLS 1.2.
This project aims to enhance security on a legacy Linux server by disabling outdated and vulnerable SSL/TLS protocols and implementing more robust encryption standards. Due to the sensitive nature of the systems involved, testing must be done in an isolated lab environment that replicates the production server configuration. The initial vulnerability assessment found the server permits connections using SSL 2.0 and 3.0, protocols that are no longer considered secure. To strengthen protections, these will need to be disabled on the server configuration. Additionally, the assessment recommends migrating to TLS 1.2 as the minimum encryption standard, using cipher suites that provide adequate security. The contractor's role will be to test the environment to mirror the production Linux server. Thorough testing is then required to validate all critical business services and applications continue running as expected with the proposed SSL/TLS changes implemented. Once verified, recommendations for applying the same upgrades to the live production server in a planned migration can be provided. The overall goal is to bolster security by eliminating use of outdated and vulnerable protocols while ensuring minimum disruption to operations. Configuring the isolated lab system and thoroughly verifying compatibility and operations across applications is key before any changes go live.

Lucee 5.4.4.38 Convert to PDF
I have a script that creates an HTML page layout that I want saved to my server (Linux) as a PDF. I have not been able to figure out how to make that work using Lucee 5.4.4.38. I'm used to Coldfusion and they have a way of making a page as a PDF using CFDOCUMENT but Lucee does not. I need someone to provide me the proper way to save the output of my .cfm page as a PDF and save to my server in a folder of my choosing within the public_html folder of the root folder. This URL (https://griffintrailer.com/dealer/orders/order-confirmation.cfm) is the page template that will need to be saved as a US Size Letter (8.5"x11") with .25" margins all around. The height will vary because the template may expand vertically depending on the contents, so there will not likely be a page break that is logically placed. The design of the outer edges of the form will always be the same as the vertical height increases, so wherever the page breaks is fine. It just needs to always fit in the width of the page with .25" margins on left and right. The header area is not really existing in the HTML code, so the page needs to just be fully filled out with .25" margins on top and bottom. No page info from the HTML code (page name, footer info, etc.) will need to be shown. Just exactly what the eye sees in the browser window. I want the .CFM markup for making this work as the deliverable along with any necessary Lucee instructions to make it process properly.

Lots of Temp Files Crashed Server
Hi there, I rent a dedicated Linux server running two websites. On one of the websites, temp files keep mounting up and are crashing the server. The webhost says... ------- Your server is overrun with files, and it's proving difficult to find the silver bullet to clear them to free up space for the server to work. We recommend you review the following directories and delete files accordingly: /var/www/***** It's taking the server an extroadinary amount of time to even show us how many files are in there. If needs be, you should consider deleting that folder and restoring from a backup. --------- I'm looking for someone to see what is happening for al the files to accumulate and provide a fix to prevent it from happening in the future. Thank you for your hellp.
