The plan was basically to work out what browsers support what, and the
best way to do things, currently there is some information on the vhost
page, you need to alter your openssl.cnf to include a few lines about
subjectAltName...

[ req ]
req_extensions          = v3_req

[ v3_req ]
subjectAltName          = DNS:www.example.com, DNS:www.example2.com,
DNS:www.example3.com

etc...
