[cobalt-users] Re: SSL certificate of server site used for all siteadmin sites?

["HAVE1.COM (Gabe Nowak)" <info@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi list members,

I'm also having the same problem as described below with my Raq4 - is there
any way around this without having to order another secure certificate and
ditch the old one? My clients are having problems login into their site's
admin because of the certificate pointing to my main domain "have1.com"...
anyone have a similar problem or found an easy solution?

Thanks
