you can't use host headers with multiple SSL sites. each SSL site must have
a unique IP address.

however if I get what you're saying correctly, both names point to the same
site? are there no other sites on that IP?

if that's the case, host headers seem unnecessary to me, though I'm not
quite fully sure of your post.

Hi Lisa,

If I create multiple sites with multiple different certs how can the
browser decide to goto a different site, the host header is encrypted
and I am in a catch 22. IIS cannot decrypt the header to decide which
site to redirect requests to because I can only have 1 cert per
server!!!

Cheers
Garry
