I have got modssl  2.8.26 compiled in Apache 1.3.23.  It works fine on
my workstation where I built it to test,
however I have not put it on my production webserver.  My web server has
a fully qualified DN that is
pretty long but I have another domain that is short.  How does modssl
determine which DN it is running
under when it compares it to the cert?  Is it DNS, httpd.conf, URL
accessed, hostname, etc.?

If someone accesses my site under the www.very.very.long.domain via
https and my cert is built for
www.short.dom and the server name in httpd.conf is
www.very.very.long.domain, will it still work?
They are both the same in DNS.  Dual entries for the address and not
just an alias.

Just a little confused about how modssl handles multiple domain names
for the same server given that
the certs are domain specific.

Any clarification is appreciated.
