Re: [users@httpd] site compromised and httpd log analysis [EXT]
ok thats for more detail ok redirects simply are considered insecure when it comes to ssl certs ie apache serves the content under the alias redirect previous to going towards the main site. that will defanitely be the issue. i ran into this myself (i have multiple domains redirected on one account ?) my config for this is below maybe this helps ? it handles all the domains and the http redirects i believe the trick is to issue all of the redirects under http:// only pointing to one https:// is how i got around this issue. otherwise you would need one cert per actual domain i dont see the harm in http:// --> https:// actual site since apache redirects it immediately?
