pretty much correct. in IIS, you cannot use host headers to differentiate sites AND use an SSL cert on those sites. the request is encrypted (obviously, it's SSL), and IIS can't see the encrypted host header to know which site to send it to (and which SSL cert to use to decrypt it).
-----Original Message----- From: cf-talk [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Saturday, July 27, 2002 5:16 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: OT: problems with SSL and host-headers Hi list, I have a CF-shared box with one IP-adress. I would like to do the following: Having access to https://subdomain.domain.com:443 I have a valid certificate for this subdomain from Thawte but when I try to connect to that URL I get an error, that there is no such server. I am sure it has s.th. to do with host-headers. Someone else told me, that you can only run one certificate with one port (e.g. 443) on the same IP using host-headers (HTTP 1.1) Can s.o. verify this ?
