    Hello,

    Is it possible to have more than one ssl vhost hosted on a single real IP?

    Thanks.

    For each ssl host you need it's own IP for port 443, to share the ip you need to use other ports, like 80 or others

    Tibi: what you are saying is in general true (at least under apache/mod_ssl). Still, there is a module for apache called mod_gnutls that was specifically created to overcome this limitation.

    Also OpenSSL versions starting with the upcoming 0.99 are supposed to support SNI (Server Name Indication) a TLS extension which makes the configuration of SSL-enabled name-based virtual hosts possible.

    For a nice documentation on how to setup mod_gnutls you can check out this article.

    Thank you guys. Now it is clear to me. mod_gnutls is not for me Marius ;-). I will just get another ip. I just wanted to be sure that I need that.

    Thanks again,
