Is that possible if I want to serve both secure and unsecure (80 and

content will be encrypted, won't it?
No, you can turn on SSL in a single virtualhost (<virtualhost *:443>)
and serve non-SSL from either the "base" server or another virtual
host (<virtualhost *:80>)

It's nice. I've been setup today two HTTPS connections with the same
certificates, using two hosts. But I don't care so much because we use it
just for encryption.

But I just ask: how apache "knows" what's the right private key without the
performance cost of loading/trying each key?? Remembering that before
decrypting it apache don't know what's the right vhost


As I thought. So it looks like I'm falling back to my original
solution of using two servers and proxy rewrites...

Thanks,
Brian

In a scenario where you have two vhosts on *:443, apache will serve the certificate from the first vhost for both sites, therefore generating a SSL certificate mismatch if a client were to request content from the second vhost, and so on.
