Is there a limit to virtualhosts listening to an ethernet interface?

[rninja]

I have multiple interfaces running off an ethernet card. I have assigned a private ip range to the interfaces, and am running apache. I have tried to set ssl and subdomains to the interfaces. For some reason, I can attach an unlimited number of virtualhosts and subdomains to the eth0 device, but when I try to attach more than one virtualhost to an interface eth0:1, eth0:2, eth0:3, etc. I cannot view the other subdomains or hosts, regardless of DNS.

Is this a rule? Only the first device can have multiple connections? or is there something I am missing? Rninja

You are trying to hang multiple virtual hosts from each subinterface? That looks like an interesting experiment:
remember each subinterface is itself a virtual device...
When you configure something like this I would suggest
you configure syslog and apache to debug everything and
run tcpdump or another packate sniffer against traffic,
concentrating first I would say, on arp to ip matches.
Unless you are way ahead of the game you haven't changed
your mac address for your virtual interfaces..

my 2 cents..

Good Luck
