If you are not running https, on your admin GUI , then I hope you realise,
your root password is out there for all to see, everytime you log onto the
admin GUI.

I would suggest you install a self signed cert at least for the admin GUI.

My pkg assumes that no one would use the GUI without https, as it is really
not a good idea.
