Or put all vhosts in the certificate (as X.509v3 SubjectAltName
extensions) and serve up the same cert on every vhost.
How you put these in the CSR is not part of this list and depends on
your CA (some require to put all hostnames in the CN,
i.e. multi-valued CNs, others require to stick these in the v3
extension.)
