I'm being asked to create a record to point one domain name at a separate domain for which we have an SSL security certificate installed. This is due to slight variation in zone names (e.g. primary is something like cat.com and the other one is cats.com.) We are authoritative for both domains.
While I can think of a couple of ways to make it go to the primary zone (cname or alias zone file) my thought is it won't work because no matter how you get there the certificate is going to be for cat.com but the URL typed in will be for cats.com and it will complain about it. Can someone confirm that? Alternatively if there is a way to make it work can someone let me know what would need to be done? This is BIND 9.3.1-P1 (backported for Kaminski attack fix). I know that SSL certs aren't a BIND thing per se - I'm just wondering if there is a BIND way to make it do this. ---------------------------------- CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: This e-mail may contain privileged or confidential information and is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s).
