Technically, it all work fine. I think Joshua put his finger on the fatal flaw -- corporate firewalls that block access to 'suspicious' ports. Not a problem for most home users, but a serious problem for people working behind paranoid/appropriately concerned corporate firewalls...

Oh well. It sounded like a good idea! Luckily IP addresses are still cheap and available. Guess I'll grab another block of 64.

Thanks: John

I think the bigger issue is that you certificate will be for 1 FQDN i.e. sample.com and hitting with any other FQDN will pop up a window saying
 the certificate and servername don't match.

No, he can supply a different certificate for each port. Port-based
and IP-based virtual hosting are almost-identical from an application
perspective. It is name-based virtual hosting that causes problems.
