To quote the Apache docs: "Name-based virtual hosting cannot be used with SSL secure servers because of the nature of the SSL protocol." Since you connect to the site in a secure manner, you can't select which host to get data from after a successful connection, as the connection will not be successul unless you have all the proper credentials already. > That's very generous, thanks!

Mainly to setup pointers to user name, password, etc. -- -=- Daniel Stenberg -=- http://daniel.haxx.se -=- ech`echo xiun|tr nu oc|sed 'sx\([sx]\)\([xoi]\)xo un\2\1 is xg'`ol
