 * I am very sorry but I cannot give a positive review. I cannot back up to Dropbox
   or to Amazon AWS S3. The error I am getting is:
    You do not appear to be authenticated
   with Dropbox Dropbox/Curl error: SSL certificate problem, verify that the CA 
   cert is OK. Details: error:14090086:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:
   certificate verify failed

 * Hi Chrispen4,
 * Those messages mean that your network connection from your webserver be suffering
   a MITM attack. You need to consult with your web hosting company, as the message
   means that your encrypted connections to Amazon and Dropbox could not be verified.
 * See: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Man-in-the-middle_attack](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Man-in-the-middle_attack)
 * Best wishes,
    David

 * After selecting DropBox then Save Changes, go back to the main screen of the 
   plugin by clicking on Settings then UpDraft, at the top of that screen you’ll
   see a box asking you to Authenticate DropBox.
    It’s a little confusing.
