To add, the user effectively sees exactly the same site as they would do under www.foo.com; all that changes is the domain in the address bar and the traffic type so, for all intents and purposes it is seamless to the user.
-----Original Message----- From: Rick Faircloth [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 08 August 2006 15:04 To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: SSL Certificates But what does the secure.blahblah.com site/domain do for the traffic that is routed to it? Just encrypt data sent to it from the other sites? In your example, what would secure.blahblah.com do for traffic sent to it from foo.com? Is for processing payments? Would it display HTML or CF pages or would it just encrypt data that is routed through it because it has a certificate? I'm not sure of the exact role that the secure domain plays in relationship to the other sites on the server. I appreciate everyone's patience with the OT topic...but all the sites I'm needing to secure are CF sites! :o) Rick -----Original Message----- From: Robertson-Ravo, Neil (RX) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 08, 2006 8:57 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: SSL Certificates Right, the secure domain is on its own IP - this is normal practice. -----Original Message----- From: Rick Faircloth [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 08 August 2006 14:06 To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: SSL Certificates > We have one secure domain ....secure.blahblah.com But that secure domain isn't accessed via host header, right? (I'm sorry for being so dense...this is probably easier than I'm making it.) Rick -----Original Message----- From: Robertson-Ravo, Neil (RX) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 08, 2006 8:26 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: SSL Certificates This is exactly what we do. We have one secure domain ........secure.blahblah.com and the moment you go from say www.foo.com or www.gnu.com to a secure location you get redirected to secure.blahblah.com. So, all secure requests go to that address - one cert.
