[nycphp-talk] Apache 2.0/Virtual Host with SSL

I haven't been following this thread, but I did notice a comment buried in the
middle of it all about having SSL-enabled hosts using name-based virtual
hosting. This isn't possible, because of a chicken and egg problem. You can
read more about this here:

(specifically, the section entitled Virtual Hosting)

How does the Web server know which certificate to use?

Hope that helps.

Chris
