How to configure different SSL Certificates for the same con

[ssaguturu]

All-

I am new to JBoss-4.2.2.GA. i am trying to configure SSL Certificates for my application. One certificate i am able to do, but i want to validate the request based on the URL.,

lets say

1. myoss.com --> then myoss related certificate
2. officeoss.com --> then officeoss related certificate

so based on URL, i need to validate the request...

i have googled, but i haven't got proper document to solve this issue, help me on this...

Any help is appreciated...

i heard we can do this by Virtual Host configurations...


if anybody knows how to do, then please let me know how we can configure multiple SSL certificates thru virtual hosts..

Currently there is no way.. (-;

Reason:-
You need two different elements in server.xml, each binding to a separate IP address. That also means that your machine needs to have two IP addresses configured. The SSL handshake occurs before the HTTP headers are sent, so you can't switch SSL certificates based upon the hostname the client is using to connect (because it hasn't been sent yet).

Note: This is not a problem with Tomcat/JBoss: this is a universal issue with all web servers.

It is Industry Accepted Solution

Still there is a way: Refer RFC#3546 [its not implemented by all], the concept called "Server Name Indication"
