reall? cool! Very glad to be wrong on this account!
So if I have secure.foo.com as my https address, and on the back end, there
is web1.foo.com, web2.foo.com, and web3.foo.com. In the www server
configuration, is there anything special that has to be done so that the
certificate (which is made for secure.foo.com) is handled correctly for the
named virtual server? (Assuming Apache as the www server)
