RE: [squid-users] reverse proxy / virtual hosting

As someone else just wrote, if you try and use a cert for web1.com on
web3.com you get an error message saying the cert isn't for web3.com.

To answer your question though, the squid.conf file mentions the following,
stating that you can run multiple addresses each with their own ssl cert:
(this is the conf file for squid-3.0.pre so check your own once you've
compiled it with --enable-ssl)

# TAG: https_port
# Usage: [ip:]port cert=certificate.pem [key=key.pem] [options...]
#
# The socket address where Squid will listen for HTTPS client
# requests.
#
# This is really only useful for situations where you are running
# squid in accelerator mode and you want to do the SSL work at the
# accelerator level.
#
# You may specify multiple socket addresses on multiple lines,
# each with their own SSL certificate and/or options.
#
# Options:
#
# defaultsite= The name of the https site presented on
# this port
#

I am setup in a similar way,
Internet-end-user----> SSL (serviced by squid) ----> RP ---> backend
webserver. But I am hosting sites where each have their own SSL cert. So I
think what I'm hearing is that I will not be able to start one Squid
instance that can handle multiple different SSL certs ?

My goal is to be able to host multiple websites with 1 ip address. Your
suggestions are welcome. Thanks.
