Hi,

I'm running Apache 2 on Linux. I currently have one SSL site. I want to add SSL for a different domain. Do I need to obtain another static IP, or can I have multiple certs on one IP?
 
You must have one IP per SSL site.

With HTTP, Apache can use the "Location" header to know which shared-ip virtual server the user wanted. This can't work with HTTPS because Apache must choose which set of SSL crypto keys to use long before any HTTP headers come through.
