How to add SSL to subdomain that points to a different server?
- by Travis
I don't know much about secure certificates, so please bear with me...
I've got a webserver that has a single domain SSL certificate
https://secure.mysite.com
I also have a couple of subdomains that point to different servers.
http://www.mysite.com ( main server)
http://subdomain.mysite.com (completely different server)
I am wondering: What is the best way to add SSL to the subdomain:
https://subdomain.mysite.com
Is it possible to configure something like this with a wildcard certificate? Or is it better to purchase another single-domain certificate and install it on the seperate server?
Are there any special considerations / pitfalls in doing something like this?
Thanks, in advance, for your help.
