[TriLUG] [Maybe OT]: SSL certificates

[ryan wheaton]

It's only maybe OT cause I'm using apache on linux servers :-)

but...  i'm new to SSL certificates, and was wondering if there was a 
way to get a site wide SSL certificate instead of having one per 
machine.  We're going to have a web server environment with multiple 
servers behind a load balancer, and we don't want our customers to have 
to accept a certificate 4 or 5 times depending on which machine they hit 
on that particular occasion. 

i was thinking that I could just do a DNS round robin set up as a "load 
balancer" so that the user hit the same machine every time they goto the 
site, that way we can have one certificate per machine and our users 
will only have to accept it once. 

any idears on this?
