Not true. Two SSL sites can share the same IP, as long as they are on
different ports. The problem here is that John needs to setup the second's
web site port to something else than the default 443. HTTP and HTTPS cannot
listen on the same port, so don't expect HTTPS to work on 81 if you setup
regular HTTP listener on port 81.
