Re: [cobalt-users] SSL is driving me crazy

[Liz <daldog@xxxxxxxx>]

I tired doing something similar to
"secure.yoursite.com/theirsite1" but no such luck. I'm not
using "secure.domain.com"...just a regular "www.domain.com"
as my SSL domain name which has a certificate.  Maybe that's
why I'm having problems?

It seems the only other option I'm stuck with is to create a
user for each site where the URL would be...
https://www.domain.com/~user/
I'm not crazy about doing this at all since I would prefer
it if all user files remained within their own directory
structure.

I was informed today that Cobalt didn't make a SSL patch for
the RaQ3 as they did for the RaQ2.  Until that's available
the following isn't suppose to work
https://www.domain.com/site#/
Please share how you got your's working! :)

There's only one "real" way to do this without each virtual
site customer
getting a warning each time they  enter the site:

secure.yoursite.com/theirsite1
secure.yoursite.com/theirsite2

Both Verisign and Thawte will tell you this is a violation
of their
license.  However, they'll also tell you (under duress, but
they will) that
everyone does it.

So, yoursite.com gets the stand-alone IP# and the
certificate.  The rest is
all subdirectories.

Theirsite1.com and theirsite2.com, etc., can have name-based
hosting.  Secure.yoursite.com needs its own IP#.
