I just purchased an SSL certificate to secure/enable only ONE domain on a server with multiple vhosts. I plan on configuring as shown below (non SNI). In addition, I still want to access phpMyAdmin, securely, via my server's IP address. Will the below configuration work? I have only one shot to get this working in production. Are there any redundant settings?

---apache ssl.conf file---

Listen 443 

SSLCertificateFile /home/web/certs/domain1.public.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /home/web/certs/domain1.private.key
SSLCertificateChainFile /home/web/certs/domain1.intermediate.crt

    ---apache httpd.conf file----
    ...
    DocumentRoot "/var/www/html" #currently exists
    ...
    NameVirtualHost *:443 #new - is this really needed if "Listen 443" is in ssl.conf???
    ...
    #below vhost currently exists, the domain I wish t enable SSL) 
    <VirtualHost *:80>
         ServerAdmin [email protected]
         ServerName domain1.com
         ServerAlias 173.XXX.XXX.XXX
         DocumentRoot /home/web/public_html/domain1.com/public
    </VirtualHost>

    #below vhost currently exists.
    <VirtualHost *:80>
      ServerName  domain2.com
      ServerAlias www.domain2.com
      DocumentRoot /home/web/public_html/domain2.com/public
    </VirtualHost>

    #new -I plan on adding this vhost block to enable ssl for domain1.com!
    <VirtualHost *:443>
         ServerAdmin [email protected]
         ServerName www.domain1.com
         ServerAlias 173.203.127.20

         SSLEngine on
         SSLProtocol all
         SSLCertificateFile /home/web/certs/domain1.public.crt
         SSLCertificateKeyFile /home/web/certs/domain1.private.key
         SSLCACertificateFile /home/web/certs/domain1.intermediate.crt

         DocumentRoot /home/web/public_html/domain1.com/public
    </VirtualHost>

As previously mentioned, I want to be able to access phpmyadmin via "https://173.XXX.XXX.XXX/hiddenfolder/phpmyadmin" which is stored under "var/www/html/hiddenfolder"
