Using ssl with multiple domains in snap-server

[Henry Laxen]

Dear Gregory & co,

First, thank you for all the wonderful work you have been doing on the
snapframework.  I have a situation where I need some sage advice.
Here is the environment:

I am using snap-server to host several different domains.  I have 3
dns domains all pointing to the same IP address.

Ex:
nadineloveshenry.com ->  64.251.15.192
ladron.mx            ->  64.251.15.192
christines.mx        ->  64.251.15.192

depending on the value of rqHostName, the code decides what pages to
serve.  This works great with http.

Now here is my question:  Is there any way to do this with https?  I
have a certificate for nadineloveshenry.com, and https works fine with
that, but when I try to go to ladron or christines, I get the "your
connection is not secure" screen with:

ladron.mx uses an invalid security certificate.
The certificate is only valid for nadineloveshenry.com.
Error code: SSL_ERROR_BAD_CERT_DOMAIN

I can see that the setSSLCert and setSSLKey functions only take
Strings (FilePath), not lists, so I can't have more than one cert per
server.  Can you suggest a way to get around this?  Any pointers will
be greatly appreciated.

Best wishes,
Henry Laxen

Hi,

You need an HTTPS frontend with support for server name indication (SNI). By itself snap doesn't support this, you'll need to put it behind a reverse proxy (like nginx).
