Re: SSL between two web servers



Absolutely. You will need to purchase a wildcard certificate for
*.mydomain.com, not a specific hostname.

The way I did it was generate the request, install the certificate on
one server... and then exported it and imported it on the other
server.

I'm using two servers behind a load balancing proxy with the same
hostname, but the same thing will work for two seperate hostnames.

I would like to know if it's possible to set up two seperate servers with the
same SSL certificate and not have the customer/client notice anything when
traffic goes from one server to the other (no SSL security notices or
anything). Here is the detailed scenario:

1) Server A with cert for "mydomain.com" located athttps://A.mydomain.com/
sends page to client.
2) Client enters information on form and clicks submit. Browser Posts
information to Server B with a cert for "mydomain.com" located athttps://B.mydomain.com/.
3) Server B records information from form and sends a redirect response to
the client.
4) Client sees redirect request and requests a page from Server A and is
back with the original server.

Is this possible with out getting any security warnings from your browser?
Is this even the correct newsgroup to ask this question in? (It is a asp.net
application but I realize it's not an asp.net specific question. If some has
another place that this question would better fit please let me know).

Thanks for any thoughts!
