If you're using www.myapp.com as well as #{customername}.myapp.com,
you need a wildcard cert. If you have a single cert for www.myapp.com,
you'll get warnings from the browser as soon as they try to access
#{customername}.myapp.com.

You can serve whatever you want using http, https or a combination of
both. link_to lets you select the protocol to use. The only thing to
be aware of is that browsers tend to throw up warnings when you try to
pull in http content into a page that was served over https.

Cheers,
