How to setup two server with one domain SSL certificate

[maiijarb]

Hello,

I have 2 separate DirectAdmin installations.

server 1: mydomain.com with hostname server1.mydomain.com, 1 IP 1.1.1.1 (ns1, ns2)
server 2: mydomain.com with hostname server2.mydomain.com, 1 IP 2.2.2.2 (ns3, ns4)

I don't want to see SSL certificate error when login to directadmin
I have a working SSL certificate for www.mydomain.com.

server 1: https://www.mydomain.com:2222 > SSL No Problem

I just wonder how to setup SSL for server 2

Thank you.

I should use:

www.domain.com:2221
www.domain.com:2222

You should instead install the SSL certificate on the hostname, and then you have to install a SSL certificate on each hostname on each server. I wrote a How-To here: http://directadmin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=36731

@Ditto You see that has different hostnames So he must pay for two certificates. I see he will use same paied certificate on both servers.

I have not did it before, but suggest different ports =)

I don't see any point in using different ports since you cannot differentiate between DNS A records by port, and both your examples will go to the same machine.

Please explain.

Thanks.

Also, using different ports on each server will create problems you can't solve if you are using a system like WHMCS.

Also, be sure to note that Certificates are generally sold on a per-system basis. So you may need to buy the Certificate for more than one system to be in compliance with their license.

We and others sell Secure Certificates from Globalsign, which come with a license for up to three servers.
