There are two ways of doing this. Either obtain a starred certificate for
every site in your domain. For example, we have a starred certificate named
*.rnib.org.uk. If Verisign don't do starred certificates then Thawte do.
Some browsers cannot use them, but they are mainly less than IE3 and
Netscape 3.0. However, these browsers cannot be upgraded use Thawte
certificates anyway.
The other way is to have a certificate for every hostname you have. This is
the expensive option, but will probably will work for older browsers.

Just to get complete understanding about the actual Certs that one would
buy from someone like Verisign. Do you need 1 cert per Apache server,
one per domain/IP address, or one per host on the domain?
