Hi,
I'm new to modssl and need clarification on a couple of implementation
issues.
I understand that each ssl-enabled http server needs its own
IP. However, would it be possible to have X number of name-based
virtualhosts and one single ssl-enabled web host using a single
IPs. Furthermore, would this one secured website be the default one whose
contents are that of the default DocumentRoot that I would get by going to
https://my.single.ip.address.
Based on mailing list archives and that one bit in the faq, it seems
that self-signing a certificate is doable. Would this be a feasible path
to take if we're setting up a secured site for only a few people? Which
benefits of using ssl would be nullified by doing things this way? I
imagine the obvious would be that I don't have the anonymous third party
there to certify the transaction, but shouldn't that not matter since those
who are importing certificates that they get directly from us probably
trust us as it is? yes, no?
