One technique I use to provide SSL access for a couple of different virtual hosts is to use different ports. domain A would be https://A.domain:1443, domain B could be https://B.domain:2443. Not super clean, but it works pretty well, especially if you're direction traffic to SSL from a non-ssl page to begin with. /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
