Using a Verisign Certificate for SSL

Alfredo Delgado said:

I believe the problem is likely to be in the httpd.conf. Once SSL is working
correctly it shouldn't matter what host name you use to make the secure
connection since the negotiation will be occurring via IP. It's up to the
web browser to warn the user that they may not be where they might be
expecting to be.

Can you share more of the httpd.conf?
---------

"myinstance" is the instance name
"10.20.30.40" is the IP address of the iSeries
I've also got a location set up for validation; this is the context used to
get to WebSphere

I can get to http://10.20.30.40 and http://10.20.30.40:443, but not to
https://10.20.30.40.

Some of the lines are broken by email formatting; hopefully it's clear which
ones.
