It is a myth that you cannot do name-based virtual SSL hosting on a
single IP... it is actually very simple (at least on linux), but the
apache guys don't want you to know about it, because there is a downside
- you do lose the 'auth' aspect to SSL (so you wouldn't want to host a
commercial shopping cart system this way), but not the 'secure' aspect.
