SSL for main domain and subdomain...

[Gene Steinberg]

So I want an SSL for www.theparacast.com and forum.theparacast.com. I'm told I need two SSLs. Does it matter that both point to the same IP number?

Peace,
Gene

Hi Gene Steinberg,

no, that doesn't matter. You could as well use the new "Let's encrypt" extension, which makes it pretty easy to get certificates free of charge to reach your goal.

Let’s Encrypt Plesk ( Link to Plesk developers blog )​

Or maybe not. Says nginix support is "experimental."

Peace,
Gene

Hi Gene Steinberg,

even that it is "experimental", it works as expected and without any issues ( I use it now for 2 month now on different production servers, with quite a lot of domains and subdomains ).

for commercial options if you buy a cheap one, yes you gone need to buy 2 ssl.
there is another version that enable you to protec domain and sub as i remember they call Wildcards ssl.
frequently is more cheap to buy 2 ssl than one wildcard.
