mat8398,

Unfortunately it is not as simple as that.

Virtual hosting with SSL is very limited. Each SSL certificate has to be associated with one IP address and a given port. And each SSL certificate is already bound to a single domain name.

So to have two SSL sites on the same IP, you'll have to host them on different ports (which means that one of them will have such an URL https://www.mysite.com:port ).

Otherwise, you'll need to have two different IP addresses point to your network (you'll have to check with your ISP to know if this is possible). Each IP address will be associated with a domain name and a certificate.

Note that this limitation affects any SSL based system or server. It is actually related to the way SSL works. We suggest reading http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_hosting#Cons (3rd paragraph) for more information.
