Re: Multi-domain with SSL - Virtualhost all need IPs?

Sorry, that should not have said "top level domains".  I meant domains.  Like example.com, example.net.

It looks like there are two requirements for multiple top level domains with SSL

on the same apache.

1. IP values must be used inside VirtualHost, not *:443

2. All IP values must be unique, even on the same top level domain

Is the above conjecture true?

We have many setup like this example...

 
<VirtualHost *:443 >

   ServerName s1.example1.com

...

</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:443 >

   ServerName s2.example1.com

...

</VirtualHost>

where s1 and s2 are aliases on the same IP.  It has worked like that for years.  330 vhosts on about 80 IPs.

When I started to convert them to use the actual IP value rather than *

<VirtualHost 1.1.1.1:443 >

   ServerName s1.example1.com

...

</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost 1.1.1.1:443 >

   ServerName s2.example1.com

...

</VirtualHost>

This had nothing to do with the example2.com I also want to put in there

but on a unique IP.  I did a few conversions from *:443, saved it and restarted apache.

Then vhosts I had not touched yet were getting pages for other
vhosts.  It was random chaos and I reverted to the previous ssl.conf copy
