ssl certifcate installation

[kunal]

hey.... i have bought a wildcard certificate for domain *.abcd.com

Now, I have installed the certificate on the main abcd.com (IP ADDRESS: 192.168.1.23) account.

However, I also have multiple separate sub-domain accounts on the same IP Address having separate username passwords etc.

For example:

1. www.abcd.com (IP ADDRESS: 192.168.1.23)
2. 123.abcd.com (IP ADDRESS: 192.168.1.23)
3. 456.abcd.com (IP ADDRESS: 192.168.1.23)
4. 789.abcd.com (IP ADDRESS: 192.168.1.23)

how do i install the same certificate across all these accounts?

thanks

Did you create separate accounts? Or separate domains on the same account? Or just set them up as subdomains?

While other methods may work, the way I know to make them work is to use an IP# assigned to the user, then set up separate domains under the user, and copy over the Certificate information (key, Certificate, and CARoot Certificate) for each domain.

Then restart Apache.

hey - i have setup separate accounts... i need each of them to have separate authentication creds.

however, they are all using the same shared ip address under the same reseller.

thanks

Pretty sure you can just install the ssl on the main account and then when they make the ssl connection on the other accounts it should work.

I'm not sure what you mean, chatwizrd. If a Certificate isn't installed for a specific domain it's not going to work for that domain, because the httpd.conf isn't going to be set up for it.

@kunnal: try it, in case I'm confused.

But if not, then you'd have to make manual changes, since DirectAdmin doesn't support setting up Certificates on shared IP#s.
