michman - seems I can do 100 SSLs on 1 IP if I don't care if it's on port 443 or 444 or 4293 - as long as I don't care about that port. &nbsp;Interesting - I'll have to try this.<br />
<br />
AndresM - yes, I believe that works as well.<br />

Why is it that there can be only 1 SSL per IP Address? &nbsp;Is this because there are no host headers in SSL and thus, only one server can listen on that IP at port 443 at a time?<br />
<br />
I assume if I change the IP address of the SSL - then in theory I could do hundreds of SSLs on one server? &nbsp;(this is hypothetical – I’m not actually looking to do this – but using it to better understand how SSL works.)<br />
<br />
Thanks.
