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?
