Nothing's wrong.  This is assumedly the proper behavior for a redirect
gateway, because you probably wouldn't want your browser accepting fake
https certificates for a web site you might need to establish a trusted
connection to.  At least, I've always assumed that was the reason  NoCat
has NO SSL support built in.  It would be nice for administration
purposes, though, or where you are connecting directly to the gateway...
Maybe run a separate web server on port 8080?
