Hi Chuck:
 
The certificate will be valid for whatever you type in as "fully qualified domain name" when making the certificate request.
 
In your case, if you register the cert against:  secure.abc.com   the cert will work for that sub-domain only.
 
It will not work for:  abc.com  or    www.abc.com    or www.secure.abc.com   or    any other variant.
 
tks,
Ian

Sorry, quick clarification please.

 

If the domain is “abc.com” and I want to use a secure certificate for “secure.abc.com”, which one is considered the fully qualified domain name (common name)?  If I register “abc.com” will the certificate work for “secure.abc.com”, “private.abc.com”, etc.

 

Thanks,

Chuck Lockwood
