Hi Timothy, I have an SSL cert, how does that help when I try to use
SSH to connect to the right Vhost? I will search for the addon you are
speaking of

@ Massimo
Yes Massimo, it might be a good idea to use to physical machines, but
thats not a solution that I can use to solve my immediate problems
right now: I Was looking for some "breathing space" for a week or 2
till I have thought things out. I have to consider a choice several
FCGI capable servers, prices of getting a new physical machine,
downtime e.t.c , a nightmare. I am clocking an average of a 100 reqs
right now, I and think that will hold for a month
