What does your "mydomain.com" zone file look like?  Do you have an A record
for secure.mydomain.com (or at least a cname entry)

Subject: Re: Question about name-based virtual hosting of ssl sites


Ok figured out some of my problem. The two files that
were included added the directives to get SSL working
but they needed to be tweaked to fit my situation.  I
am now includeing mod_ssl.conf and ignoring the
vhost.conf file.  I have also verified the Listen
Directives are defined for both port 80 and 443.

I now have it where I can hit my regular website using
http but I can't hit the other virtual host using
https.  What bothers me is this...my https vhost is as
follows:

<VirtualHost XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:443>
    ServerName secure.mydomain.com
</VirtualHost>

When I ping secure.mydomain.com it says "Unknown Host"
but when I ping www.mydomain.com it works fine.  This
is wierd because it seems part of the problem is at
the DNS level (which can't be right). I feel I am
REALLY close...what am I missing?

Wierder yet.  I have another domain registered to my
IP, www.mydomain2.com

If i create virtualhosts off of it (e.g.
test.mydomain2.com) it works fine.  

Any ideas?
