Description Priit Laes (IRC: plaes) 2008-11-17 07:14:45 UTC 
As now it is possible to use name based virtual hosts with mod_ssl (USE="sni") please add following directive to conf files so these hosts work "out of the box".

By default they do not work as one needs to add
'NameVirtualHost *:443' 

to 

/etc/apache2/vhosts.d/00_default_ssl_vhost.conf (or any other conf file)


And this is quite tricky to find out :)

Yep, that's what USE="sni" does :)

Sorry, i didn't know about ssl2.
Comment 4 Benedikt Böhm (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-01-01 13:23:54 UTC 
since sni is still experimantal this should not yet be configured as default
