Although it is a kludge you could accomplish this by mangling an internal
DNS to return the internal machines IP for the cname you are using and using
the same certificate on both machines.  The syncing can be easily handled
with rsync and a cron job.

Subject: self-signed CA and maintaining a mirror site


Afternoon from sunny Vancouver (today anyway!)

I have a problem with a development configuration. I want internal people to
be able to do their thing - which is straightforward enough, except that I
can't get Netscape to recognize the mod-ssl installed X509 cert.

At the same time, I want to maintain a full mirror image of the web site
(the web site proper is co-located elsewhere) so we can both see what we are
doing without reference to the external web site, and also update the web
server daily. This would seem to mean I need another certificate to identify
the web site morror. It also seems to me that it might be easier to install
2 instances of Apache, each handling its own 'client'.

Any suggestions??

Thanks,
