Hello,

We are setting up a new DA server and currently we have 5 domains configured under the admin account.

We will be wanting to install multiple certs - 1 per domain.

Do I need to move some of these domains elsewhere? It seems (I could very well be wrong) that I can only install 1 cert per account.

You have to create one account for every domain and give one IP to each domain.

That's one of the serious limitations of DA.

Thats what I thought, wanted to make sure before I went too far down this road.

I appreciate the information!

Having to create an account for every IP# is a limitation of DA.

Having to have a separate IP# for every secure site cert is a limitation of the ssl protocol.

The only way around it in the protocol is to have different sites answer on different port numbers.


Why? Because there MUST be a way to identify the site uniquely (ip/port) before the packets are unencrypted.
