Puppet users - Nov 2010 - Is anyone using SSL with Dashboard?

I would like to use SSL with Dashboard as a means of controlling
access. I''ve got my Dashboard vhost working with client authentication
and a user with the right certificate can view the dashboard.
However, my puppetmaster cannot post reports to Dashboard any longer
because it cannot speak SSL to the Dashboard server.  I doubt
puppetmaster has support for posting reports over SSL, but maybe I am
mistaken.

Has anyone else tried using SSL with Dashboard? Is there another, more
preferred way to add access control to Dashboard? (even if there is, I
doubt the puppetmaster can be made to use whatever credentials
necessary to authenticate and post reports)

Thanks all,

Kent

Would running 2 copies of dashboard work?  One on 127.0.0.1 that is not SSL and
one on a public interface that is or is the local interface not private?
