SSL was not working, patched /home/etherpadlite/etherpad-lite/node/server.js (This is now replaced by the reverse proxy)
- Here is the ugly patch

Cosmetic

Modification of the file /home/etherpadlite/etherpad-lite/static/js/pad.js 96-102 so it's Monospace font by default (didn't find a better working way), editing static/custom/pad.js with pad.changeViewOption('useMonospaceFont', true); doesn't work.
