Mike,
I know that running SSL on multiple virtual-host sites works well with Apache.
However, have you tried to do the same with Orion? By that, I don't mean one
SSL certificate shared by multiple hosts - I mean multiple certificates, each
of which is specific to a virtual host.
I've tried for a long time to get that scenario to work, yet the best I can do
is to have Orion recognize and share only one certificate among *all* of the
virtual-hosts. That's not particularly useful. I'm to the point of placing
just the SSL pages of all the sites on Apache, and using Orion only for the
non-SSL part of the virtual-host sites.
I was told by someone that this was an https limitation and not an Orion
limitation, but it works on Apache, JavaWebServer, and IIS just fine.
Any suggestions or ideas?
Thanks!
-Dale
