AFAIK, all web servers require a dedicated IP because the domain name of the request is encrypted also, therefore the server can only rely on the network address (IP) requested.
-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 27, 2005 2:07 PM To: [email protected] Subject: OT: SSL Certificates Can you have an SSL certificate on a website that is running on a virtual server, or IP-less domain? This would be on a shared server where there may be dozens of domains. I am asking this specifically regarding IIS webserver and Apache. With some web server software you have to have a dedicated IP address before you can create your certificate. I would think that you are binding the cert to the domain name and that the IP would not enter into the equation but that does not always seem to be the case. Can anybody clear this up for me regarding IIS and Apache on NT.
