Yea bluedragon is really whack in that they advertise it as a free server, but it will not work over SSL. I've had a project a while ago where we decided to use BD, and then hit the SSL bump (it wasn't even in the documentation anywhere... just in some obscure faq page on their site).
I felt very misled about the product, considering that previous versions didn't limit you like that (this was ver 6.2). In the end we decided to go with CF 6.
