It really is quite simple - cnames and server certificates don't go very 
well together. The problem is that the server certificate is sent to the
client during the initial SSL handshake, long before the client can tell 
the server which virtual host it wants. That's the way the SSL spec is.
The only way to do it is to have one ip for each server certificate.
