Jim,
I issued the cert under the standard www.mysite.com. I haven't set up two
virtual sites using different ports. Is that the key? And if so, how can
you set them up to both use the same dir?
I have tried to just use a single site with both ports open and that doesn't
seem to work. Every time I try to connect to the https URL, I get a page
not found error--for the same template I can call with no problem using the
standard http request.
Thanks for your help, by the way. I think you are on thr right track to
getting me edumacated...or as Stan says, "You must no ssl sites good."
Cheers and clarification,
Brandon
