    Bernard,

    According to the following document, I can use host-headers and a wildcard
    certificate in Win2K3 and IIS 6.

    http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/WindowsServer2003/Library/IIS/596b9108-b1a7-494d-885d-f8941b07554c.mspx

    However, it requires that I be able to enter the site identifier number to
    attach the host-header to the correct website. Does this make any sense to
    you?

    Thanks, 

    -- 
Thanks for your time,
Mizer
