RE: Multiple Public Domains on 1 SBS Certificate



Hi Jenny:

I have read many of your posts on Certificates, therefore I am glad you
have added your thoughts to this problem.

Your points are correct

1) I have one physical server with one Web site that I wish to have a
Certificate that has 5 FQDNs on that ONE Certificate.

2) I want want external users access one web site use any public FQDN of
the five public FQDN?

3) I want to be able to create that ONE certificate with the tools of SBS 2003

I do not quite understand your point

You can contact your ISP to add the five public FQDN records to the one web
site and apply one certificate to it.

At present I control the DNS entries for all 5 FQDNs and they point to the
correct IP for the physical site. Did you mean something else?

Kinid regards
Fred
