Not at all, it's really just name based vhosts that cause problems for SSL, because only one host gets picked to present the certificate, which means all the hosts have to use the same certificate. However, as far as I understand, if you use ip-address or port-based vhosts, then this shouldn't be a problem. Apache can easily find the correct vhost if it's only base on ip address and port number, it's just that it can't try to find a name-based vhost until the SSL decryption has occured. -Brian -- Feel free to contact me using PGP Encryption: Key Id: 0x3AA70848 Available from: http://pgp.mit.edu/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
