Robert,

Well, I guess I don't know if I'm talking name-based or IP-based. I use the
"virtual-hosts" parameter of the web-site.xml file to specify the domains of
interest, such as www.domain1.com, www.domain2.com, www.domain3.com, with the dns
server mapping each of these domains to the same IP address, which in turn is
running Orion.

I'm a programmer working at an ISP, and although I don't manage the Apache servers
here, I do know that they have one Apache server with five certificates installed,
and only one network adatper. From that, I'm understanding that the server is
using only one IP address, on one port (well, two actually I guess, one for http,
and one for https), and yet the server selects the cert which is appropriate for
the site.

Sorry if I'm being dense about this, but I obviously am just not 'getting' it.
