Re: SSL and virtual hosts

["Totte" <tottek@xxxxxxxxx>]

Does anyone know how to generate a certificate for a main domain and any numbers of sub-domains for a domain in Linux?

 

I got my subdomains working using one cert for the main domain and the same cert for the subdomains. However, I get the "certificate issued to another domain" error when accessing the sub domains.

 

cheers

part of what the point of certificates is (along with encypting data) is to ensure you are connecting to the domain for which the cert was issued.

 

mydomain.com is NOT the same in ssl as www.mydomain.com.

 

The data (assuming the users says 'yes, continue to the site' in thier browser (when they get the error that will show up, will be encrypted.

I have an account with GoDaddy.com and they have a "6 in 1"
certificate that allows you to have 6 sub-domains in one certificate,
I have done a lot of research lately on certificates, and they seem
to have one of the best deals around.

I use them for all my dns, and have been very happy with the software
they have which allows me to manage my domains.

I also have email accounts with them, and they are incredibly easy to
setup, and change as well...
