Re: [cobalt-users] shared SSL on RaQ (4i)

[Shared SSL cert]
My questions (finally!) are these: what can I expect if I want to set
this up on my RaQ4 -- will my clients actually be able to share the SSL
-- is there a way to give them a URL which uses some path on the server
which will skip the warning message in the browser -- has anyone done
this (either sharing, or any custom paths for resold accounts), and is
it workable? Basically... after all that... any advice?

I've done this on my RaQ3. Don't know if this will work for the RaQ4, but you could give it a try.

Basically i set up a virtual site called www.order-securely.co.uk and installed a SSL cert for it.

Once that was set up i edited the httpd.conf file (back it up first!) in the following manner:

I found the virtual site order-securely.co.uk

Found the lines:

AliasMatch ^/~([^/]+)(/(.*))? /home/sites/site3/users/$1/web/$3
AliasMatch ^/users/([^/]+)(/(.*))? /home/sites/site3/users/$1/web/$3

Then added this line directly below them:

AliasMatch ^/secure/([^/]+)(/(.*))? /home/sites/$1/web/$3

Saved the file, restarted the web server and you can now access each virtual site via https://www.order-securely.co.uk/secure/siteX (where X = site number) or https://www.ordersecurely.co.uk/secure/www.theirdomain.com

Hope this helps.
