Hi,

you can not use SSL with virtual hosting, see http://www.modssl.org/docs/2.8/ssl_faq.html#ToC47

You'll have to get a dedicated ip for every single ssl host. You could play around with one ssl proxy on your single ip with a common name and do some rewriting according to an url praefix matching the secure parts of your backend virtual hosts; decide yourself if this config work is worth it.

I thought that using wildcard or multi-cn certificates will work ?
In this case, only one certificate is needeed for a range of Vhost
