Well, I realize I need to get an "official" certificate to avoid those annoying pop-ups, but what I'm not sure about is whether I can go with a cert for www.whatever.com and use that for my https pages, or if I need to get a cert for something like secure.whatever.com and use that for https while the www.whatever.com will remain strictly http? I guess what I'm asking is, in the httpd.conf can I have 1 entry for the same virtualhost - one for port 80 and the other for 443? ---Marius
