Default configuration:

Configuration path [ /etc/g_httpstorm | /path/to/httpstorm ]
Configuration file [ service name | g_httpstorm ] .ini
Root directory on UNIX root = /var/www

TLS cert file tls_cer = httpstorm.com.pem
TLS key file tls_key = httpstorm.com.pem
TLS cert file 2 tls_cer = httpstorm.com.rsa.pem
TLS key file 2 tls_key = httpstorm.com.rsa.pem
Multiple key-cer pairs can be used to provide different certificate
types e.g. ECC and RSA for better compatibility with old clients.
Eliptic curve strength tls_min_bits_ec = [ 256 | 384 | 448 | 521 ]
Disable weak ciphers tls_no_weak_ciphers = 1
Ciphers know to be weak e.g. CBC can be disabled to achieve
higher security when compatibility with old clients is not needed.
Enable HSTS upgrade_hsts = 1
Upgrade to HTTPS upgrade_https = 1
Automatically upgrade to HTTPS if the client wants to.
The server sertificate name and expirity date are checked,
to make sure we can safely upgrade the connection to secure.
