Hello guys and gals, A client of mine is being rather persistent about using a FQDN in the cert for a Passthrough Proxy setup that makes use of the Virtual Hostname. Based on all the info I have gleaned regarding the certificates and the bits I know about using Passthrough Proxies, making use of Virtual Hostnames requires the following: 1. Either use a wildcard cert to match the domain, in the case of this particular client it will have to be, *.remote.domain.com, with the FQDN for the passthrough being, passthrough.remote.domain.com 2. Or if you do not have a wildcard certificate you can use another IP address and what I assume to be the full FQDN cert (this is something I picked up off of one of zanyterp's replies in another post). The problem I have is this, the client is being persistent in wanting to use a full FQDN for the passthrough cert with the FQDN DNS entry pointing to the SA. Unfortunately I do not know enough about the shortcomings Virtual Hostname nor exactly why this would not work and so I'm not able to answer the client's query to a point that he would stop and just generate a wildcard cert for the 'remote' subdomain as I have suggested. Would one of you be able to enlighten me as to why the above would not work? Regards, Alan
