Author SSL on a different IP

Hi - can I have a site on one ip and have SSL on a different IP or does the
site have to be on the same ip as ssl? If I can, then how? Huge thanks ...

DNS resolves host names (e.g. yourserver.domain.com) to an IP address. DNS
does not include the protocol in the name resolution process.

What are you trying to achieve? And we might be able to provide an
acceptable workaround or configuration that meets your needs.

Cheers
Ken

SSL works well with different IP, though you can use same IP, however this
would needs unique port for the binding.
Finally, if you have w2k3sp1, you can then have same ip / port with
different host header. The catch with current implementation is that all
urls must have the same parent domain, e.g. *.myssl.com.
