Dan - thanks for your response.

So the answer would seem to be that since FW-1 is doing an http redirect,
the server's certificate should have the same URL as the content of the
refresh - which is to say:

Logical server: fred.pffcu.org
server 1: wilma.pffcu.org cert=wilma.pffcu.org
server 2: bambam.pffcu.org cert=bambam.pffcu.org

As opposed to each server having a cert that is for fred.pffcu.org
