Thread: SSL Multi-Domain Certificate

Started 1 month, 4 weeks ago by Termn8r
Ok I have read many posts and many people saying it is impossible to run SSL on the same IP. But this doesn't make any sense to me at all. First, when you request a certificate they do NOT ask for an IP they only ask for the domain. So the cert does NOT care what IP your server is running on. So this isn't an SSL limitation. At best it is an Apache limitation. Second: I have seen ...

Eureka! I am posting my results since I had horrid time finding someone that could fix this. I got it working 100% Here is the correct configuration for running multiple virtual domains with the SAME SSL certificate. I will use ip 192.111.1.5 for my pretend static IP. keep in mind my config may not be the best parameters but it works for multiple vhost SSL on ONE IP and I ...
