Description

The curl call that uploads the inventory files is using http by default.
https is supported according to both docs and webdav config (i think, don't fully understand DAV).
It isn't yet configurable to use HTTPS unless one directly changes the system technique.

Absolutely, agreed.

For simple reference, this is changeable by editing the following line: https://github.com/Normation/rudder-techniques/blob/master/techniques/system/common/1.0/site.st#L116.

This would be pretty easy to add to the web interface, by adding a section in the admin > settings screen, and a system variable and using that in the common technique metadata.xml and site.st.
